Flavorful Cranberry Stuffed Pork Chops

Flavorful Cranberry Stuffed Pork Chops
My family loves county-style cooking. But once in a while, I like to dress up down-home dishes and make them a little more special for company. A crunchy coating adds a nice touch to a traditional sausage loaf.

  • 2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage
