Secrets from the Cookie Princess: Crock Pot Pork Tenderloin

We ate all the pretty pieces of this before I remembered to take a photo on the plate. But trust me when I say it was worth the sacrifice. We eat pork tenderloin fairly regularly and this is another super simple recipe for the versatile protein. This crock pot version combines just a few ingredients for a sauce that offers a lot of flavor. And you can probably pull this together in under 5 minutes before work on morning and come home to a delicious dinner that definitely taste like more than a 5 minute time investment. All of the ingredients are pantry staples, so you'll be able to make this a last minute addition to your meal plan without any issues and end up with a tender, juicy pork tenderloin begging to be paired with mashed potatoes and steamed veggies.

This recipe was an internet stumble that I picked up from KitchMe. It doesn't have a source of who posted it but was inspired by a recipe from AllRecipes. I made no changes to this dish because after looking at the ingredients, there was nothing to question. You can adjust the seasonings if you like, but this works just fine. So if you see that pork tenderloin is on sale at your grocery store, pick up on for dinner and one for the freezer and make it easy on yourself with this crock pot recipe.
