Whole Chicken in Crock Pot

Tonight we had a classic.  Chicken, mash potatoes, gravy, and corn.  I cooked a whole chicken in a crock pot with about a cup of water.  Cooked on high till the popper popped up.  Used the the drippings to make a gravy.  Nothing fancy, but thought I would blog about it just to give you a quick and easy home cooked meal.  Hope you had a GREAT night!  :)

Do you love our fine china?  It makes living in a RV a little easier!  :)

Tuscany Pork Lion, CROCK POT

Recipe created by Heidi

• 1/2 of a whole pork loin, fat trimmed

• 1 T. salt
• 3 T. minced garlic
• 1 T. basil
• 1 T. thyme
• 1 T.  rosemary
• 2 T. olive oil

• 2 Roma tomatoes, chopped
• 1 red onion, sliced
• 6 medium potatoes, cubed 

Spray crock pot with cooking spray.  Mix spices and oil together then rub pork loin with it.  Cut pork loin into 3 pieces to help it cook faster.  Place pork in crock pot then pour rest of the ingredients on top of the pork.   Cook for 6-8 hours on high.  Just before serving I take the potatoes out and fry them up a little in a skillet to brown them, this is optional.  I cooked mine for 8 hours and the pork just fell apart!  :)
