Greek food – its my new thing!  I was worried about Greek potatoes because I had assumed it would take a ton of olive oil, but these are not bad at all.  We served a family of 5 with only 1/4 cup of EVOO.

1lb stewing meat cut into bite size pieces

Pork Chops with Scalloped Potatoes

This is a make-ahead casserole type dish. You’ll need an hour to cook, and 20 minutes to prep I suspect. But then you pop it in the oven and walk away for an hour. That’s worth it isn’t it?
Ingredients:

4 large pork chops (this recipe is great for those not-so-good cuts)
1 tbsp oil
1/2 pkg [...]
