When I was growing up, we couldn't afford to have meat very often, so it was a special evening when we had these tender chops. The apples, raisins and apple cider give this dish a sweet touch and a pretty appearance. —Shirley Joan Helfenbein, Lapeer, Michigan

Not as sweet as I expected. Might try it again without the mustard? Looks pretty.
