Pork Roast

Crockpot Pork Roast (with citrus) aka "Heavenly Harvest Pork Roast"

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 Cup Pomegranate Juice
  • 1/4 Cup Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon garlic salt
  • 1 tablespoon steak seasoning
  • 1 pork roast, 4 to 5 pounds
  • 2 pears, cored, peeled, sliced thick
  • 1/2 orange with peel, sliced thick
1. Mix pomegranate juice and sugar together in small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Pour mixture into slow cooker.
2. Mix salt, pepper, garlic salt, and steak seasoning together in small mixing bowl. Rub mixture over roast in your slow cooker. Turn roast to cover with juice. Top roast with pear and orange slices.
3. Cover and cook on HIGH, 6 to 8 hours, or until tender. Serve with juice and fruit slices.

Just typing this makes my mouth water. I suggest buttered potatoes, cheese noodles, and other simple meals. This is tasty, and great for left over sandwhiches! Mhm, top it off with a nice fresh fruit salad with cream for dessert!

Creamy Bacon Chicken!

(Will try to find picture!)
Ingredients:

•8 bacon slices (whole slices, don't chop in half, I use 16+ slices)
•8 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
•2 (10 oz) cans roasted garlic cream of mushroom soup
•1 cup sour cream
•1/2 cup flour

Preparation:

You can prepare this one of two ways. Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-low heat until some of the fat is rendered. Be sure that the bacon is still pliable and not crisp. Drain on paper towels. If you use this method, reduce the flour to 1/4 cup. Or don't cook the bacon and proceed with the recipe.
(I don't cook the bacon)
Then wrap one slice of bacon(I use 2 or more depending on the size of the chicken) around each boneless chicken breast and place in a 4-5 quart crockpot. In medium bowl, combine condensed soups, sour cream, and flour and mix with wire whisk to blend. Pour over chicken. Cover crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours until chicken and bacon are thoroughly cooked. You may want to remove the chicken and beat the sauce with a wire whisk so it is very well blended. Pour sauce over chicken. Serves 8

If you have a new hot cooking crockpot, check the chicken at 5 hours. It should be 160 degrees F.

Great with: Carrots, mashed potatoes...you name it...it's awesome!
