    If you look up the definition of comfort food, you just might find a picture of this Pork Chops and Potatoes Casserole. After all, how can you go wrong with tender pork chops smothered in creamy, cheesy potatoes? Serve this filling dish with a light healthy broccoli salad on the side.

    pork chops and potatoes

    This Pork Chop Casserole recipe is near and dear to my heart. I found the recipe in a Women's Circle Creative Cooking magazine. The magazine dates back to 1992, the same year I got married.

    Back then I knew very little about cooking. However, my cooking skills have come a long way since then. Although I have made many modifications to the recipe since then, it still remains one of my husband's favorites.

    I've prepared this dish for many of our church families over the years, some celebrating a new birth, and others needing comfort in difficult times.

    I've passed this recipe on to many of those families along the way. Now I'm happy to be sharing it with you!

    The creamy, cheesy potatoes just melt in your mouth and are quite filling, making them the perfect complement to the pork chops.

    This Pork Chop casserole is not only delicious, but it's also perfect when you're short on time. Serve it with Roasted Brussel Sprouts for an extra special treat!

    🤷🏻‍♀️Recipe FAQs

    What's best to eat with pork chops?

    Pork chops can be served with various sides including potatoes (as in this recipe). A vegetable option on the side is always a great idea. Besides salad, you can also have steamed or roasted vegetables on the side. One excellent option is Cheesy Brussel Sprouts.

    Do you bake pork chops covered or uncovered?

    It's always a good idea to cover pork chops with foil while baking them. This ensures that the pork chops will be tender and juicy.

    In this recipe, we begin with covering the pork chops as they bake and uncovering them for the last five minutes or so, until the French fried onions are brown and crispy and the cheese is melted.

    👩🏼‍🍳Pro Tips

    • There are many variations of this pork chops and cheesy potatoes recipe online. Many use thinly sliced potatoes instead of hash browns. You can also shred fresh potatoes to make your own hashbrowns. I would recommend partially frying the potatoes before mixing them with the other ingredients.
    • Instead of French Fried onions, you can use caramelized onions.
    • Cream of chicken, broccoli, or asparagus can be used instead of cream of mushroom soup.
    • If you want to be extra naughty, add some crumbled bacon in the hashbrown mix!
