Recipe Monday: Crockpot Pork and Cabbage

This is what I am fixing today! Bill is busy clearing the house so the renovations can start.  I am working my fingers to the bone and have the first night of Adult Fitness Camp at Studio Z.  Days like today and I am sure the rest of the week are days that the crockpot is pressed into service. 

Most people don't think about this wonderful appliance in the summer.  But I love it any time of the year.  Summer is a wonderful time to break this cooking method out to avoid turning on an oven in hundred degree temps!   So today we have pork and cabbage!



Ingredients:

• 3-4 Pork Chops or a Rack of Pork Ribs (cut up into 2-3 rib sections)
• 1 Head of green cabbage, roughly chopped
• 3 Tbs of Nature's Seasoning
• 1 Tbs of soy sauce
• 1 Tbs of Worchestshire sauce
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1/2 sweet bell pepper, chopped
• 1 can of chicken broth
• Enough water to cover pork

Directions:

• Season pork with nature's seasoning
• Place pork, onions, garlic and bell pepper into the crockpot
• Stir together the soy, worchestshire and chicken broth.  Pour over the item in the crockpot
• Add enough water to just cover the pork
• Cook in crockpot for 5-6 hours
• Add the cabbage in about an hour before serving, if on low go for two hours or turn crockpot to high for last hour of cooking

I usually serve this with cooked brown rice and a salad or a fresh vegetable.  Warm bread goes wonderfully too!

Please post back if you try out any of my recipes.  And I am always open to new recipes to try out.

Our first Review -- Thank you Amber

Thank you so much to Amber at WAHM Connect for the wonderful review of the Dino and T-Rex Kid kit.  You can read the full review at her blog.  If you are a Work at Home Mom (or Dad), check out her websites.  She is a wonderful resource for all of us.

I appreciate the review both from a business perspective but also from a personal one.  Bill and I are plannig to homeschool our daughter and this review shows me in concrete fashion what can be done outside of a formal "store-bought" curriculum.  I already knew that Usborne had some great resources but to see them in action with someone I admire is priceless.
