Sometimes you have people coming over and want to make something special, but not something that is last-minute fussy or will heat up the kitchen.
This pork chop recipe can be made with pre-cooked meat, such as slices of cooked pork loin. Just heat in the oven until the meat is warmed through and the cheese is melted, maybe 15 minutes. This is from All Recipes, and one of the reviewers said it works for her Atkins diet.
Baked Pork Chops with Cheese
4 boneless pork chops
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
4 teaspoons butter, softened
4 teaspoons mayonnaise
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place pork chops in a baking pan. Spread 1 teaspoon of butter over each chop, then spread 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise over butter. Season each one with seasoning salt, pepper and parsley. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese over the top of each pork chop.
Bake 35 minutes in preheated oven, or until internal temperature of the chops has reached 160 degrees F.
This is a family favorite. Very good made ahead and heated up. Also good cold, like an antipasto.

Saute the onion in olive oil with a little salt until tender. Stir in the green beans and tomatoes, and simmer 10 to 15 minutes to heat through.
Can't wait to try this.
