Why You’ll Love This Recipe
I always keep a pork tenderloin in my freezer so I can prepare easy but elegant meals like this Slow Cooker Cherry Balsamic Pork Tenderloin any time.
I love that this recipe takes just a few minutes of prep times, but the results look like you spent hours in the kitchen preparing a fancy meal. Nobody has to know the truth!
In fact, I think this pork roast is nice enough to serve for Christmas dinner. And the colors and flavors are perfect for the holiday season. Who says Christmas dinner has to be a long and complicated process?
Plus, my husband and boys are huge fans of pork tenderloin. Especially when it comes slathered in a delicious glaze like this cherry balsamic sauce that adorns this tender pork roast.
Come to think of it, most of our favorite pork tenderloin recipes feature some sort of balsamic glaze. I guess you could say it’s a tried and true combination at our house.
With a side of mashed or roasted potatoes, and some carrots or green beans, you’ve got a meal that’s fit for company or Sunday dinner, but easy enough to prepare any night of the week.
The sauce isn’t just great on pork tenderloin either. It’s also delicious served with ham, and as a glaze for grilled or roasted chicken. And if it gets mixed up with your potatoes or vegetables, don’t worry. That’s delicious too.
And it’s so easy to add two pork tenderloins to your slow cooker if you’re feeding a larger group. For my family of five, a single small tenderloin isn’t quite enough, so I usually just go ahead and double the recipe.
Besides, even if you have leftovers, no one is going to complain about eating this tasty pork tenderloin twice! It’s perfect for throwing into a simple soup, or enjoying taco-style in a tortilla.
Whether you serve it during the holidays or not, you’ll want to make this simple, slow cooker roast recipe all year long!
