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.
