Since I have started blogging I have found some wonderful recipes for the crock pot. In the past my crock pot was used for dip or keeping things warm, but not for cooking a meal.
I found a recipe on Pinterest for pork tenderloin that sounded very interesting. I thought the combination of ingredients was kind of odd, but this recipe made me want to give it a try. The pork tenderloin turned out full of flavor and very tender.
And as always it is so nice to put something in a crock pot and walk away and end up with a delicious product.
The pork tenderloin was served with the honey wheat bread from my last post and rice. The pork tenderloin and the ingredients in the recipe make a nice sauce, which was used to serve over the rice.

My crock pot is gathering dust in the basement. ;-( I really should use it more – love the idea of doing a pork tenderloin in it. Great inspiration – thanks.
