Instructions to make Brenda's Stuffed Pork Chops:

2. Cook bacon over medium heat till almost crisp. Add onion and cook till soft. Add garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Add spinach, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper and the Italian seasoning; cook, stirring, just until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.
3. Remove the spinach mixture to a medium-size bowl; let cool completely. When cool, add the provolone cheese and egg; gently stir to combine completely.
4. Place the pork chops on a flat work surface; cut a slit horizontally to the bone so chop can be opened like a book. Stuff each chop with 1/4 of the stuffing. (If freezing, wrap each chop tightly in freezer wrap, without toothpicks; freeze up to 1 month.) Secure chops with toothpicks.
