Pork Chops w/ Mushroom Cream Sauce

This dish is so delicious and so decadent and the perfect meal choice for a special holiday. I first made this with traditional mashed potatoes but I feel that the mashed cauliflower is just as good, if not better, and a great accompaniment to the creamy and earthy flavors of the mushroom sauce.

About Me

Hi everyone! If you're new here my name is Christina. I am a 35 year old mother of 2 beautiful boys, Ayden and Bryce. I've been married to my highschool sweetheart, Noelby, for 10 years and we have built a beautiful life together. I lost my mother to COVID-19 on April, 24th, 2020. The reason I mention this is because I feel that this traumatic experience has changed me and shaped who I have become. I don't think I'm particularly special, but I did graduate from culinary school and will be sharing delicious recipes as well as lightened up versions, as I am currently on a very long health and weightloss journey. THANKS FOR BEING HERE AND BE WELL!
