Skinny Meals for #SundaySupper

Of course our #SundaySupper team got together to host a “Skinny Event!” Aren’t you excited!!!!!???? Sue from Sue’s Nutrition Buzz is hosting this fabulous event so lets give her a hand! You know Sunithi, AKA  Sue, I’ve cooked a dish from her before, I just posted it last week, Corn Chowder Mac N Cheese!

Healthifying a dish, is very important to me. It’s part of the reason why this blog was started because I love cooking and I love sharing recipes with people, sharing is half of it but making the recipe Good…..Healthy or even Hearty is the other half to me. I try replacing artificial ingredients with fresh ingredients, I substitute additions that are high in fat with low and in fat and high in fiber additions, I also try and make each of my dishes scream FLAVOR!!

You know that I love my #SundaySupper crew and I’ve made MANY of their dishes, this weeks theme is no different. I am setting a goal to make sure I put at least 5 if not more of these awesome dishes on my MUST TRY list over the next few months because once baby Drew is born this Momma is going strict again!

When choosing a recipe for this week I contemplated making a favorite dish and healthifying it, give you the true meaning behind what this Momma tries to do in the kitchen but I wanted to make something new. Something different. So I reverted back to my favorite site that I first found when I started making healthier dishes in my kitchen. Man did I pick a good one!!

Slow Cooker Pork and Green Chile Stew
Serves: 6 (roughly 5 Cups, 3/4 Cup a serving)
Recipe From: Skinnytaste.com 

Ingredients:

• 
2 lbs* boneless pork loin roast, lean, all fat trimmed off
• salt and pepper to taste
• cooking spray
• 2 tbsp unbleached all-purpose flour
• 
3/4 cup diced onion
• 2 cans (4.25 oz each) whole green chiles, sliced into thick rounds
• 2 tbsp chopped jalapeño, or more to taste
• 10 oz can diced tomatoes and green chilies (Ro*Tel Mild)
• 1/2 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
• 
1 tbsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:

Cut pork into 2-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a large non-stick skillet on high heat; when hot lightly spray the pan with oil and brown the pork over medium heat on all sides, about 3 – 4 minutes total. Sprinkle 1 tbsp of flour over pork and stir to cook 30 seconds, sprinkle remaining flour over pork and cook an additional 30 seconds.

Add browned pork to the crock pot, along with the remaining ingredients.

Cook on LOW for 8 hours or HIGH for 4 houts (if using a Dutch oven, cook on low heat for 3-4 hours). When done, adjust season, salt and pepper to taste if needed.

I wanted to serve this over brown rice, however I was out (hate when that happens) so instead I served it over Stir Fry noodles. JUST AS GOOD!
