Slow Cooker Pork Cacciatore Recipe

Slow Cooker Pork Cacciatore Recipe

Pork has been a favorite in this family for ever so I decided to give this Slow Cooker Pork Cacciatore Recipe a try. I had a lot going on during the day so the use of the slow cooker fit in pretty well. Most of the time when you prepare a recipe and are able to taste it before it is cooked, and it is good, it will even be better after it is cooked. Wow-the sauce was delicious even before it hit the slow cooker. I prepared this recipe as written, but used shredded Mozzarella cheese in place of sliced, for picture purposes.

Serve this Slow Cooker Pork Cacciatore over pasta and you family will love it-enjoy.
