I didn't like this recipe; it was too bland for me.

As far as ease, this is about as easy as it can get! High marks for that. It was tasty as well, although my sauce was a little more like a spreadable consistency than saucy. I did add additional milk and parmesan to thin it out and that helped a little. Probably operator error - heat too high or something. Overall very tasty, and my husband enjoyed it too!

I used a pork roast instead, cooked it in a slow cooker and made a double batch of sauce to go with the roast. It was really good and I think I will try the sauce with other dishes.

Very tasty! I used bone in loin chops and finely chopped onion that I sauteed in the drippings before adding the milk. Fast weekday meal that I'll definitely make again.
