During our vacation a couple of weeks ago, we did some wine tasting in the Finger Lakes region of New York. It was our first time tasting a wine that they are known for up there called, Gewürztraminer. It’s a delicious light and crisp white wine that we immediately thought would go great with a German inspired meal. Since I have done a Pork Schnitzel before, and since I couldn’t seem to find Veal to make a classic Weiner schnitzel anywhere, I decided to make a different version of a Pork Schnitzel with a yummy loaded Mashed Potato.
This pork was to die for! So easy, with only 6 ingredients (stuff that you probably already have in your house), and so incredibly juicy and tasty!
The Mashed Potatoes were amazing as well....but then again, aren't all Mashed Potatoes delicious?

We paried this meal with a bottle of Gewürztraminer - a light, crisp white wine that we picked up in the Finger Lakes while wine tasting!
