1 medium onion, chopped
4 boneless pork loin chops
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. salt
2 slices reduced-fat Swiss cheese, halved

• In nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook bacon & onion over medium heat until bacon is crisp, stirring occasionally.  Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels.  Discard drippings.

Tupps Tidbits ~  you could add a chopped apple to the pan with the onions and bacon for a sweet, tart twist 

 It was a nice quick welcome dish to finish off a busy day.  This a classic dish  had just a enough twist to make it impressive enough to serve to company.   We both loved the taste and I am sure we will make this many times throughout the year. KEEPER!
