Easy Spicy Stuffed Pork Chops Recipe

Earlier this week, I was trying to figure out what I was going to make for dinner but feeling really uninspired. A long, drawn-out exploration through our industrial-sized garage freezer yielded a fatty pack of fresh, thick boneless pork chops, hence my Spicy Stuffed Pork Chops recipe was born!

We tend to gravitate towards spicy foods, but we realize not everyone may have the same interest in spices that we do, so you can omit the chipotle pepper (adobo) sauce if you’d like. It’s literally straight from the chipotle pepper can and may not be something in everyone’s pantry. If not, and you’d still like some spicy, a little sriracha or a dash of Tobasco would add some heat without overwhelming the remaining ingredients.

Spinach-Feta Spicy Stuffed Pork Chops

  • four boneless pork chops
  • 1/2 cup Feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup sour cream (I used Breakstone’s Greek Yogurt sour cream)
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh spinach (you could use frozen but you’d need to drain and dry it thoroughly)
  • 1/4 chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 chipotle pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp chipotle pepper sauce
  • salt and pepper

Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Lightly oil an 8 x 8 baking pan.

Cut a pocket into each pork chop, making a slot just big enough to insert the filling but be sure to not cut it all the way through.

Mix the Feta, sour cream, spinach, tomatoes, pepper and sauce and salt and pepper to personal preference in a bowl.

Fill each pork chop pocket with the filling.

Bake for approximately 45 minutes. Check your chops as they may take more or less time; I used the convection option.

Enjoy! I served this with roast sweet potato wedges, drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper. It’s a quick healthy meal that everyone loved! This picture is horrible, but it’s the only one that remained after a phone kerfuffle. (Fun word I never get to use.) One day I’ll remake the recipe and I’ll update the above unflattering but somewhat descriptive photo…if anything, it does accurately display that it can be a messy dish to eat if you’re not careful!

As we pulled up to our hotel in Paris, our driver As we pulled up to our hotel in Paris, our driver pulled over briefly on this bridge across the river Seine. She explained to us that it was a very popular place for people to take wedding and engagement photos. We got lucky, traffic cleared for a moment and I snapped this shot of a bride and groom in their honeymoon car, just about to drive away. It was a beautiful first real view of this city of romance. I want to go back again, just to wander and eat and try more wines, no real agenda beyond walking and taking it all in.

Our Alaskan cruise was full of amazing memories, b Our Alaskan cruise was full of amazing memories, but this day spent kayaking on Chilkoot Lake was incredible. Cold, deep water. Snowy peaks. Glacier fed. Slightly terrifying but once we got in the groove, we kicked ass. 10/10 if you take an Alaskan passage cruise.

With the recent release of Guardians of the Galaxy With the recent release of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in theaters, the Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is even more relevant to me when I visit the park. Last week, the morning after I saw the movie, I was at my happy place and the first ride I went on was Mission Breakout. I got a kick out of the scene where Drax punches the animal in the face, and once you’ve seen GOTG3, you’ll get why. I considered going on it again, but I was on the Carthay wait list (highly recommended if you don’t have a reservation, particularly if there’s only 1-2 in your party) and I got my text to return within 15 minutes for my seat…and I really wanted the bao buns. I did head back later in the evening to watch a Marvel show with Black Widow by the Quinjet. Never saw Mantis though, was really hoping to get a picture with her. 

Don’t skip the gift store on your way off the ride. There’s a whole new batch of GOTGVol3 gear AND new Loki stuff! The purple Loki hoodie had just come out and I grabbed one before they sold out, even though I can’t imagine when I’ll wear it next here in SoCal. With the show coming out on October 6, I’ll wear it…with the a/c on if I need to. There’s also some new stuff in the Studio 17 store — if you haven’t visited it, it’s full of photo opps and gear for all your Marvel needs.

Disney’s Toontown has had a major redo recently, Disney’s Toontown has had a major redo recently, removing its iconic trolley — a photo opp of many memories with my Toontown-playing son — and adding a new ride, Mickey’s Runaway Railway. It’s a mix of animation, motion and music, and I LOVED it. Come along with me on a quick tour of the line-waiting area and part of the ride. Don’t worry, I didn’t share too much so you will still have plenty of surprises!  Say what you will about Disney-loving adults, I don’t care, I waited 35 minutes to ride this and I’ll do it again next time..and the next…and the next. Only warning: hold onto your hats, and ears! The ride is safe and smooth but there are some quick movements that may catch you off guard.

Getting a box from Melissa’s Produce is what I i Getting a box from Melissa’s Produce is what I imagine it would feel like when you’re a contestant on Chopped. What’s in the box? What can I make with it? Except without the pressure to get it all done in 45 minutes or less. Each box makes me be creative, and each item I’ve never tried pushes me a little out of my comfort zone to try new things. Whatever it is, we have so much fun! This box included Blue Potatoes, Baby Heirloom Tomatoes, Dragon Fruit (Yellow), Ojai Pixie Tangerines, Rhubarb, and a big bag of Fava Beans….which may be my favorite, because shelling them is relaxing and you can’t have too many fava beans and Chianti jokes.

Thank you @MelissasProduce! I’ll be sharing recipes soon. I’m thinking up ideas and will be making them all this week to post here in a reel or on my website. I’ll update later!
