Crockpot Chili Verde

Just like I mentioned last night, we are back on track with the healthier recipes. I went from eating pop-tarts (sometimes twice a day) to trying to eat better and it seems like I'm still gaining weight :/ It must be all that Halloween candy that I can't keep my hands off of. I didn't realize that four mini candy bars = one king size candy bar until I talked to my sister about it! Haha. Anyways, now that all the good candy is gone, back on track. 

Last night I made this Crockpot Chili Verde recipe from the same NMKidney website that last night's blog was from. You can find the original recipe HERE. When I think of Chili Verde, I think of my Mom's. She made the most delicious Chili Verde - I need to ask for her recipe because that is definitely something that I won't forget! Anyways, with this recipe, we used four pork chop loins (they actually did shred, I wasn't sure but the original recipe called for pork or pork loin chops and the chops worked well) and we didn't use onions.  

Ingredients:
Four pork loin chops
1 jar green salsa verde
1 1/2 tbsp corn starch
1/2 cup beef broth
3/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp red chili flakes
1/2 green bell pepper, sliced
1/2 red bell pepper, sliced

Directions:
In a crockpot, add the pork chops and green chili verde sauce. Mix broth in cornstarch and add to crockpot with garlic powder and red chili flakes. 

Cook on high for 4 hours. Shred pork. Serve with rice and tortillas.  If you are like my fiance, you also can add Tapatio on top.
