    I did modify this recipe just a tad.
    Used a pressure cooker.
    Basically doubled the recipe.
    Marinated the chops all day in a baggie with the vinegar.
    Made a roux sauce with sauteed onions, mushrooms, and broth by adding 1 T of WW pastry flour and 1 tsp sucanat.
    Served over brown rice - 5/26/11
