WW Recipe of the Day: Crock Pot Fruited Pork Loin
I got the idea for this Fruited Pork Loin from my local grocery store. When I stopped in looking for dinner ideas they had pork loin roasts stuffed with dried fruit sitting in the meat counter. So, I grabbed one and cooked it in my slow cooker. It was really tasty.
Stuffing dried fruit into a pork loin is not something I would go to the trouble of doing myself. I’m much too lazy.
Recipe Notes
I’d make a simple fruited pork loin roast like this one instead. By topping a pork loin with dried fruit and cooking it in the slow cooker with thinly sliced onions, dried fruit and a little spiced apple juice.
Simple. Delicious. No muss, no fuss.

Think this would be ok with Drained canned peaches, onion, cranberry sauce and craisins
Hi Pattie,
I think this would be tasty. My only concern is that the drained canned peaches might completely break down during the long slow cooking. Tasty but a softer consistency than dried fruit. Hope this helps. ~Martha
