Apple Cinnamon Pork Chops

While I was surfing around the American Diabetes Association website tonight, trying to learn more about other types of diabetes (empowerment is in education, after all!), I came across a page with recipes that also include nutrition facts and food exchanges. This one in particular sounded so yummy to me! It had my mouth watering just reading over the ingredients! We will definitely be having this one tonight for dinner!
