Slow Cooker Creamy Pork Chops with Mushrooms and Potatoes

This was yet another success for the crockpot.  Delightfully tangy, yet creamy, and the pork chops were falling apart – literally.  It actually wasn't in the plan for this week, but when I went to put it together, I opened up to the wrong recipe, and didn't realize it till I went to put it here!  Luckily it was a huge hit, and will definitely be staying in the repertoire.

I served it with brussel sprouts covered in butter and garlic powder.  It was an amazingly good combination.





Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs. pork chops
  • 1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
  • 1 can mushroom pieces and stems
  • 1/3 c mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 4 large red potatoes, washed and cubed
  • 1 onion, chopped coarsely

[For Freezing]
  1. Combine all but pork chops in freezer bag and mix well so that potatoes are fully coated. Add 1/3 c water if necessary.  
  2. Add pork chops, remove as much air as possible, and freeze flat.
  3. Place in refrigerator to thaw the day before you wish to cook it.
