Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Recipe


I've been seeing recipe videos pop up all over my Facebook news feed.  I've even had a few people share videos to my timeline.  Most of the recipes look absolutely delicious, but are totally not clean eating or on plan for the 21 Day Fix.  I create tons of recipes for my challengers, so I decided to make a video myself using clean eating principles.  This is my first attempt - Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork.


This video took me more hours than I care to admit, but it was a huge learning curve!  I know that all of the following videos will be much faster.  My job now is to work on better lighting!  My kitchen is dark, so I've got to work on adding more production style lighting to my recording area (aka my kitchen table!).  Feel free to share!  If you make it, please leave me a comment!

Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork

Pork tenderloin (sized for your family)
1 red pepper sliced
1 green pepper sliced
3 carrots chopped 
1 onion halved and sliced
2 cups pineapple
salt and pepper to taste. 

The sauce is:
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and ground ginger mix (or separate them if you can't find a blend)
2 tsp honey
1/4 cup soy sauce.

Add pork to the bottom of your slow cooker.  Season with salt and pepper. 
Mix sauce in a small bowl.  
Add veggies to the slow cooker.  
Pour sauce over top.  
Cook on low for 6-7 hours.  If you want to be able to slice your pork, cook no longer than 6 hours.  If you don't mind that it shreds, you can cook it longer.  

For my fellow Fixers - I would measure it as 1 Red, 1 Green, 1 Orange (seeds and sesame oil), 1/2 Purple (depending on your serving size of pineapple)
