My husband and I can never get enough fresh buttery squash from our garden. These chops cook up sweet and tender in the slow cooker and the classic, comfort-food flavor doesn't take up my whole day to prepare. Mary Johnson - Coloma, Wisconsin Ingredients:
6 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces each) |
2 medium acorn squash, peeled and cubed |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
1 tablespoon orange juice |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel |
3/4 teaspoon browning sauce, optional |
Directions:
1. Place pork chops in a 5-qt. slow cooker; add squash. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, orange juice, salt, orange peel and browning sauce if desired; pour over squash. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or until meat is tender. Yield: 6 servings. |
