Meet Lisa, the Creole Contessa! She decided to create the Creole Contessa blog after cooking and eating an especially wonderful meal with her family and wanted the world to experience the food goodness that she was eating and cooking daily.

Her grandmother, mother, and aunts all inspired her food journey. As she says, “Food is truly love in my family. We not only enjoy great food – food is part of our heritage.”

Her goal for the Creole Contessa is to take her family traditions and love of cultural foods and put a Creole spin on it! Follow along as she “Creolizes” any dish.

I can’t wait for y’all to make this recipe! These Herb Butter Pork Loin Chops are so simple to make. The gravy people! OMG this gravy is so good.

 I am using this wonderful garlic herb butter that really does make the sauce. You could make your own butter by mixing fresh herbs like parsley with minced garlic. Add that to room temperature softened butter and mix well. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill until ready to use.
