Italian Baked Pork Chops

I knew this one was going to be a tasty meal when I heard Chris proclaim from the other room....Oh my god this is so GOOD!!!!  And he was absolutely right.  But you'll probably not be surprised by this statement.  This dish has all my favorite flavors.  Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, basil, oregano, parsley.....mmmmmmm......what more could an Italian (ok, part Italian) girl ask for?  I found this recipe in one of Sandra Lee's Semi-Homemade cookbooks.  When I bought the book, I was astonished at all the people who commented on it, saying that they didn't like it because she used too many store bought ingredients.  I laughed because, well, if they really truly knew anything about Sandra, they would have known that Sandra is all about taking certain store bought items and turning them into "semi" homemade meals.  Her thing is to make things easy and in a short amount of time and make it look like you spent hours in the kitchen.  Now, I'm not always fond of her recipes, I'd rather use fresher ingredients, but they give me ideas, and that is what I LOVE about them.  This one is actually straight from her book... and I didn't change a thing.
