FRUITY PORK ROAST



Fruity Pork Roast image

I like using the slow cooker for our meals because it gives me time for other preparations, frees the oven, and it usually doesn't matter if you serve it later than planned. The fruit in this recipe, which I adapted, gives the pork a special flavor. -Mary Jeppesen-Davis, St. Cloud, Minnesota

My first pass at making this, but it really turned out tasty. Pinched from an old Culinary Arts Institute cookbook and tweaked it just a bit. It is a good way to put a little variety in your pork meals.
