Slow Cooker Pork Chops | Crock Pot Pork Chops with Cranberry

Mmmm... Pork Chops smothered with a sweet and sour style apple cranberry sauce - yummo!  Can't wait for dinner.

If you are like me, and the mornings are a bit crazy in your house too, then you will love this recipe, because it is super simple to pre-pack it in a zip lock bag the night before, toss that in the fridge and then just pour it in the slow cooker before you dash out the door.  Just remember to turn it on first!

Then you can spend all day looking forward to coming home to these delicious chops.  Be sure to stock up on lean pork chops next time they are on special at your supermarket or butcher - this is a fantastic and easy week night recipe that you will use often and your family will all enjoy.  Should you ever be out of cranberry, use a small can of pineapple and its juice, and hold the mustard - stunning!  The kids will love this version too!
