Mexican Style Crock Pot Pork Chop Recipe

I love my slow cooker. Once you’ve mastered the basics, the sky is the limit. Sometimes, a new recipe just comes to mind, and that’s exactly what happened with this Mexican Style Crock Pot Pork Chops recipe.  I was actually laying in bed trying to fall asleep, and boom, I knew exactly what I was making for lunch the next day.

I must have had pork on the mind. That’s because, I had just picked up a whole hog at the butcher. Our good friends raise pigs, and we tend to fill the freezer every year thanks to their efforts.

I love pork chops, pork steak, pork roast, bacon, sausage…bring it on.  But sometimes, I need to spice things up with a new recipe. And these Slow Cooker Green Chile Pork Chops have just enough “spice”.

The sauce is simple with only three ingredients – salsa verde, green enchilada sauce and cream of chicken soup. The salsa verde and green enchilada sauce have that Mexican flare while the cream of chicken soup thickens the sauce. Cook some rice on the side and pour the extra sauce over top!
