Overnight Crockpot Apple Oatmeal

Anyone, like myself, who is not a morning person will love this. Generally I wake up a zombie and my son always wakes up to my alarms, no matter how early I set it. It's just a reality that I'll never get to wake up before he does so I can get myself ready for the crazy!

First thing on his mind is FOOD!!! So I love making this so all I have to do is scoop and serve, then he eats while I get ready for the day.

Ingredients:
2 apples
1/4-1/3 cup brown sugar(depends how sweet you want it)
2 tsp cinnamon
2 cups oats
4 cups water

Cut the apples into chunks and toss them in the crockpot

Next sprinkle the brown sugar on top

Now add the cinnamon

Top it off with the oats

Finally pour in the water but do not stir.

Just put on the lid and cook it on low for 6-8 hours. I used instant oats so I did it for only 6.

When you wake up just stir and serve!

It did not last long!

Crockpot Pulled Pork

This weeks sale is pork tenderloin at my local store. It came as a two pack for $6! this is enough to make enough pulled pork for at least 6 people!

This is really simple!

Place pork tenderloin in crockpot.

Now add Apple Cider Vinegar. I don't measure I just add to my liking but I would say it was about 1/4 cup.

Here's the best one in my opinion

Next you add whatever spices you like! I use my go to Dry Rub! Find the recipe here.

I sprinkle it liberally to cover the tops of the pork.

Turn it on low and cook for 6-8 hours or 4-5 hours on high. Enough that you can easily rip it with a fork.

Once done, shred it up with forks and add your favourite sauce. You may choose to cook on low for another couple hours or serve it!

I decided to make rice and make it into a pulled pork burrito!  YUM!!

Enjoy and take care.
