Onion Dijon Pork Chops

Here is a quick cooking meal that can be made any day of the week but is special enough for company.  The chops cook in less than 30 minutes, served along with canned veggies and rice cooked in the microwave (you know, the kind in the orange pouch that cooks in 90 seconds), you can have this on the table in no time!
