Slow Cooker Whole30 Pineapple Pork

Whether it’s because of my kid’s activities, or because I don’t have the mental bandwidth to think too hard in the kitchen, there are just some days that require a slow cooker recipe! Meals made in my trusty, 15 year old slow cooker don’t make for the prettiest food pics, but they make up for it in convenience, and this busy mama is all about that! With only FIVE ingredients (plus salt and pepper to taste), this fix it and forget it recipe is one that you can make on even your busiest days. Serve it with a side of steamed broccoli, and dinner is ready in minutes!

I try to keep a pork shoulder butt roast on hand in my freezer because this recipe is so easy and made with ingredients I almost always have in the pantry. As a busy mom of four, I certainly need to take the easy route from time to time, which is why this is one of my go-to recipes for hectic nights! I hope it will serve your family well, too!
