Steps to make Brenda's Stuffed Pork Chops:

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.
