It’s not an easy task, and I still rely on the old standards for my son quite a bit. Mac and cheese, hot dogs, and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!

Many times, if it’s a meal that my husband and I will love, it might be too spicy, or too complex for my son to love. One of the exceptions is these pork chops!

They are flavorful enough for us to love, but mild enough for my son to enjoy as well. I usually serve them with some easy steamed broccoli, rice, and a bagged Caesar salad. Everyone’s happy!
