PORK CHOPS AND SPANISH RICE

Pork Chops and Spanish Rice image

This is one of the first recipes I ever served to guests. That was 30 years ago and I still make it today! This is the recipe as it was written, however sometimes I add a combo of red and green peppers, use V-8 juice instead of tomato, and add 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder. You can also heat it up by adding a little hot sauce, or a little chopped hot pepper, or by making the mustard a spicy one. It all depends on your family's taste.

Spicy Spanish Pork Chops and Rice Casserole image

This is so flavorful. It is a combination of a couple different recipes and my own personal touches. We like things spicy, so use mild rotel and omit the jalapeno and tabasco if you don't want spicy. I'm going to try this with brown rice next time, I have a feeling it would be really good. I'll let you know!

My mom has made this forever, but she just uses an eye to see how much spice she had to add, and/or tomato juice. It has always been a favorite of mine so I actually wrote down what I used. Surprise MOM! I did use a few different ingredients, but I liked the added zip and I know my husband loved it, because we had leftover rice...
