I finished off my sour cream last night. Are you sure your up to the challenge? What I really need is a cook but short of that a tutor might help. How long can you keep cooked pork chops in the fridge??

@jakedduck1 @lioness I wouldn't go past 2 or 3 days with pork chops in the fridge. On the other hand, you probably could take and freeze a cooked pork chop if you don't want to eat pork by yourself for the next multiple days. That is a bane of cooking for 1. I can't have pork, shellfish or things like mushrooms because of my gout. There are other things I can't have because of my kidney disease, including potatoes. Once in awhile I splurge and have half a baked potato. But as far as seasoning for a baked potato, try a little bit of sour cream or plain yogurt in place of butter. Add diced onions if you like, black pepper, Mrs. Dash salt free seasoning. Or try a bit of chili or garlic powder. The seasonings choices are endless. Depending on what you used for the seasoning mix from the pork chops if you got one of those bag and season concoctions from the grocery store you might be able to put a little bit of the seasoning from the pork chop on to the baked potato after everything is cooked. Cooking is not an exact science by any means - lots of experimentation. Sometimes you will find a recipe and say "by golly I'm going to do that again". Other times you want to just throw it down the garbage. Ask me how I know!
