This recipe looks absolutely DELICIOUS and I will be making it for dinner tomorrow night

You can’t go wrong with bacon and apples together!

I found this recipe on a cool new site called PaleoPot.com,  be sure to check it out!

Ingredients:

• 4 large Grass-Fed Pork Chops (filet a pocket on 1 side for stuffing)
• 4 large Strips of Bacon (chopped)
• 2 med Granny Smith Apples (peeled & diced)
• 1 med head of Garlic (smashed & chopped)
• 1 cup Raw Unsalted Pecans
• 1 large sweet onion (sliced into half-rings)
• 1 lemon (for zest)
• 1 Tbsp Paprika (optional)
• 4-8 toothpicks

Directions: 

1. Create a “pocket” in your pork for the stuffing, making sure not to puncture the back of the chop
2. Place bacon in a frying pan and cook until they are about 80% cooked.  Add diced apples, pecans, & garlic to the mix.  Stir well.  (Add paprika if desired) Cook until bacon is 95% cooked
3. Remove mixture into a bowl with a slotted spoon, keeping bacon grease in the pan.  Toss the onions in the bacon grease quickly (not cooking them) and remove from the stove.
4. Stuff the chops with the Apple, Bacon, and Pecan mixture and secure with 1-2 toothpicks.
5. Cover bottom of Crockpot with bacon grease and half of raw onions.  Place chops (stuffing side facing up) into crockpot.
6. Cover chops with remaining stuffing mix and rest of the onions.
7. Cook on low heat for 8 hours in the crockpot.
8. Serve Chops with zested lemon on top, and a quick squeeze of the lemon!

I am very excited to try this tomorrow….I’m going to make mine with either steamed broccoli or sautéed spinach.
