Obviously, I get all of my great recipes from my family. The best part of this recipe is that you can place this meal in the crock-pot at the beginning of the day and come home to a warm meal! Everyone in my family loves delicious and healthy meals, but no one loves spending hours in the kitchen. We also love to have leftovers whenever possible. My family has been extremely supportive of my diet since day one. For any family members out there, you have absolutely no idea how wonderful it is to have a support system that makes delicious meals you can eat!
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 8-10 hours in the crock-pot (8 hours minimum)
Ingredients:
½ big bag of organic kale
1 onion sliced into ½ inch pieces
3 small potatoes/2 medium potatoes/1 large potato (or white sweet potato for AIP)
4 oz of mushrooms
4 medium carrots sliced into ½ inch pieces
1 all-natural pork tenderloin (we get ours at Walmart or food lion)
1 clove of garlic diced
3 cups of chicken bone broth (this is a guestimate)
salt, onion powder, and pepper if reintroduced
- These measurements are incredibly flexible. Feel free to add more or less veggies depending on the room in your crock-pot.
Directions:
- Place pork tenderloin in bottom of the crock pot and rub it down with salt, garlic, and pepper if reintroduced. Pour in bone broth until you have about a half-inch of broth in the crock-pot. Allow to marinate for a few hours or overnight if you have the time. The soup will still be delicious if the tenderloin doesn’t marinate.
- Prepare veggies and store in a zip lock bag.
- Place all veggies except kale in crock-pot and fill crock-pot with ½ broth and ½ water until the veggies and tenderloin are covered. Place the kale on top so that it floats/sits under a little of the broth.
- Turn crockpot on low for 8-10 hours. Add salt, garlic powder, or other seasonings to taste.
- Shred tenderloin and enjoy!
*This soup will just get better the longer it sits. It’s even better after a few days.
