Preparation

Step 1

Quickly brown the pork chops on both sides over medium high heat in a little bit of oil. Don’t completely cook them, just give them a quick sear. Place them in your crock pot and sprinkle with the ranch dressing mix. Pour the soup over the top. Cook on LOW heat for 5-6 hours, or on HIGH heat for 3-4 hours. Serve with hot mashed potatoes.

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Place potatoes, salt, and garlic in large pan; cover with water. (I actually scrubbed my potatoes and left some of the skin on. We like it that way and it’s healthier too-bonus!) Simmer for about 15-20 minutes or till tender. Drain and mash. Add cream cheese, milk, butter, then salt & pepper to taste. These are so yummy that we even like them without gravy!
