What a week. Last weekend, all six sisters went to a large blog conference in Las Vegas where over 3,000 bloggers were in attendance.
We publicly launched our new site, My Recipe Magic, and had an AMAZING response. Hundreds of people signed up to share their recipes on the site and we are so excited to be able to make it available to everyone.
After 3 exhausting days of networking and presenting, we headed back home to Utah, only to be POUNDED with a huge snowstorm that left over 2 feet of snow. It has been INSANE.
Needless to say, we have been completely snowed in. There was no way that I was going to make it to a grocery store, so I dug through the freezer and found some pork tenderloins that I had been saving for a special occasion. Well, it’s doesn’t get any more special than a snow day.
This smelled absolutely amazing while it cooked and my family gobbled it up so fast. I promise that your family will love it too. This recipe is so easy to make. The slow cooker does all of the work. I served this pork with my Mom’s Cheesy Potatoes.
Would potatoes and carrots cook well with this recipe?
Carrots and potatoes would cook great with this recipe. You can just throw them into the slow cooker, and they will work nicely with the pork roast. You may want to add about a half cup of water, just to ensure the potatoes get soft, but they will work great.
We also like to add onions, zucchini, asparagus, broccoli, or what ever veggies you prefer.
