    Hey, 1st of all, hi 👋🏻 from the Netherlands and new sub of you’re YouTube page. Yesterday I was looking for a simple yet yummy recipe, with not that much of ingredients and allready on hand and I came across this recipe. Not gonna lie, was a little skeptical at first, because I tought the rice was gonna be verry dry together with the porkchops…. But boy was I wrong…. Made this for my family of 6 (4 kiddos and my hubby/me) and we all loved it, even the kids who are verry picky! So thank you for sharing this recipe, I know for sure we’re gonna eat this more often, because it’s simple, jummie and still nutricious! Again, greetings from the Netherlands hope to make a lot of you’re recepies 😊
