Pork Chops And Harvest Vegetables For The Crock Pot Recipes

Steps:

• In very small bowl, mix salt and garlic-pepper blend. Sprinkle half of seasoning mixture over pork. In 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in oil about 4 minutes, turning once, just until browned.
• Spray 4- to 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Place pork chops in slow cooker; top with carrots, potatoes and onion.
• Cover, cook on Low heat setting 3 to 4 hours.
• In medium bowl, mix squash, basil, remaining 1 tablespoon oil and remaining half of seasoning mixture; spoon on top of vegetable mixture in slow cooker. Increase heat setting to High. Cover; cook 10 to 15 minutes longer or until squash is crisp-tender.

Steps:

• Brown the pork chops (seasoned with salt and pepper) in a 425 degree oven for 30 minutes.
• Remove pork chops and set aside.
• In a 5 quart crock pot layer the sliced onions, sliced turnips and baby carrots.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste (I used Lawry's).
• Add the apple slices evenly over the vegetables.
• Spread the sauerkraut over all and sprinkle with the caraway seeds.
• Lay the browned pork chops over the sauerkraut and cover the top with the soup that is blended with water or broth.
• Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours, or until the carrots are tender.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450° F. Spray 15 x 10 x 1-inch pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, mix Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
• In large bowl, mix potatoes, carrots, onion and garlic. Sprinkle with oil and half of herb mixture; toss to coat evenly. Place in center of pan.
• Bake 20 minutes; stir vegetables. Sprinkle remaining herb mixture over pork chops. Place pork chops around vegetables. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until pork is no longer pink and meat thermometer inserted in center reads 160° F, and vegetables are tender.

Steps:

• Place the pork chops in the crock pot.
• Sprinkle with onions and garlic over and around the chops.
• In a bowl mix together all remaining ingredients except the salt; pour over the chops.
• Cook on low setting for about 7 hours or until the pork chops are cooked through and tender (cooking time will vary slightly depending on the size of your pork chops).
• Season with salt to taste if desired.
• Serve over rice.
