This is one of the great freezer meals! I had a 4lb pork loin that I cut up into thirds to make some of these meals and this is one of them. Please forgive the very inexact measurements :) Feel free to use more if your goal is to feed more than 4 people or if you want lots of leftovers. We got 4 meals out of this.
You will need
1 1/2lbs (ish)
1 apple washed and sliced
1pear washed and sliced
1cup brown sugar
1 tbps cinnamon
1 tsp dry mustard
For freezing: place the pork in a freezer bag and slice apple and pears and place on top. Write dry ingredients to be added when placed in crock pot on the bag.
Thaw freezer bag the night before you want this meal. Also mix your dry spices and cover for quick morning add in. In the morning dump into the crock pot, add just enough water to cover the bottom of the crock pot. Pat or sprinkle your spices over the roast then arrange some of the pear and apple slices over the top. Cook on low 8hrs.
We also had squash with this meal, if you are busy and working all day it would be advisable to cut up your squash in advance and just put it in the crock pot. I do mine in the oven by slicing it in half placing it on a baking dish and covering the bottom on the dish with water. Then I bake it at 350 for about an hour, the rind should be wrinkly looking or browned and the squash should come away from the rind easy peasy when it is done. I mash it up and mix in some allergen free butter, Earth's Best in the red tub, and brown sugar. Serve the pork roast over the squash. You can also throw a bag of steam able veggies in the microwave for another allergen free side.
Enjoy!
