4 (4 ounce) boneless pork loin chops, raw
8 clementines (Mandarin oranges)
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons salt substitute seasoning
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 tablespoon cucumber, diced
4 grape tomatoes, quartered
1 tablespoon bell pepper, diced
2 lime wedges, juice only
2 cups brown rice, cooked
2 cups spinach, cooked and drained

1
Place pork chops in a casserole dish. Peel, seed and section the clementines.
2
Place half the clementine sections in a small bowl (chop the other half, reserve and refrigerate for late use in salsa). Use a fork to press half the sections into small pieces. Add orange juice and soy sauce then mix together well.
3
Pour mixture over pork chops, being sure that the chops are completely covered with marinade. Cover the dish and refrigerate 4-6 hours or overnight.
4
Pre-heat oven to 350u00b0F. In a small dish, blend onion powder, salt substitute seasoning and chili powder. Remove chops from marinade and season both sides with the spice mix.
5
Bake in oven for 22-28 minutes, depending on the thickness of the pork chops.
6
Combine the cucumber, grape tomatoes, bell pepper and lime juice with the remaining clementines to make a fruit and vegetable salsa.
7
Prepare brown rice and spinach according to directions on package.
8
Serve each pork chop with equal amounts of clementine salsa, 1/2 cup of brown rice and 1/2 cup of spinach.
