Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker


image and recipe from here

There was a great price of pork tenderloin, so I bought a large one,
divided it, and found this recipe. We were not disappointed.
It was so easy and so wonderful.
Here's an option for leftover turkey!


Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker
1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin
1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
1 c. water
3/4 c. red wine (substitutes here)
3 T. minced garlic
3 T. soy sauce
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Place pork tenderloin in a slow cooker with the contents of the soup packet. Pour water, wine, and soy sauce over the top, turning the pork to coat. Carefully spread garlic over the pork, leaving as much on top of the roast during cooking as possible. Sprinkle with pepper, cover, and cook on low setting for 4 hours. Serve with cooking liquid on the side as au jus.

One day I was trying to remember why steel-cut oats are supposed to be healthier for you than regular rolled oats. I found this fun Food Face-Off page on the Prevention.Com site. I love visuals, so these appealed to me. There are many more to look at. I love to learn the reasons behind doing the things we should do. It's like learning the promised blessings associated with the commandments!Find more here.
