Made this for dinner tonight. Went back to check the recipe to see if I forgot something - I didn't. We thought too bland - maybe, if I ever make this again, I will add garlic, or some spices. Gave it one star, however, for ease in preparation and it has a nice consistency. Sorry, but this just did not work for us.

Good recipe that was easy to prepare. I didn't include the wine or parsley. And I did add a clove of minced garlic when cooking the pork chops. Served it over rice. I will make this again!
