Pork Marsala

It's been awhile... but I'm back with a new recipe... I've been looking for new and healthy dinners for my family.  Most of the time Marsala anything comes with a heavy mushroom gravy, yum- right?  But not always the healthiest... So I decided to update this classic, and instead of chicken I chose boneless pork chops... Only because, I'm getting sick of chicken.  I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
