This Italian Pork Chop Casserole is the perfect one-dish dinner for your family! Pork chops, onion, mushrooms, and potato covered in tomato sauce and baked in the oven - wonderful with a refreshing pitcher of iced tea!
I know for myself, when the weather gets cooler, I can sometimes get "in a rut" with dinner ideas. I tend to gravitate toward the same few dinners that require little brain-power on my part to put together, and ones that I know the whole family will eat. Immediately what comes to mind is spaghetti, soup, and tacos. I will admit, at times we do get tired of the same things over and over!
This is exactly when I try reimagining some of our favorite flavors in new combinations - just to mix it up a bit. Nothing too crazy or wild, but a tad different to refresh those taste buds. Of course Italian flavors are one of my go-to dinners during the week. Pork chops, however, are not one of my usual dinners. My family absolutely loves pork, though - and I'm always looking for new ways to prepare it for them.
This Italian Pork Chop Casserole is one of the best recipe "mashups" I've come up with! That classic Italian tomato sauce flavor with garlic, onion, and mushrooms combined with savory pork chops and quartered potatoes - main dish and side dish in one!
I served this amazing casserole with a refreshing pitcher of Lipton Cold Brew Iced Tea, put this recipe on your menu plan ASAP!

I wish you could reach through the screen and take a bite of these amazing pork chops and potatoes - the smell is incredible! Guaranteed to get your family running to the dinner table in no time.
I really love how pairing iced tea with a lovely winter casserole like this one, makes such a great flavor profile! Rich tomato and savory pork flavors with a refreshing sip of Lipton Cold Brew Iced Tea - absolutely heavenly. For 2 quarts of iced tea, pour 8 cups of cool water over 2 tea bags, brew for 5 minutes dunking frequently, and sweeten to taste. Can't get any easier than that, I say!
