PEAR STUFFED PORK CHOPS

This recipe was a mistake, when I lost my good house keeping magazine, I thought this was how it was made, then I found it on the internet, and the real recipe was pork chops with pear stuffing. But I still prefer my way. It's a good one for those who like to have applesauce with their pork chops.
