Spicy Pork and Vegetable Soup (Biggest Book of Slow Cooker Recipes)


Edie told me about this recipe and Ron cooked it for me. I do lead the good life. It was really delicious and Ron and Ronny even enjoyed it. This recipe serves 6, has 9 grams of fat, 5 grams of fiber and 18 grams of protein. The guys did not want spinach in theirs, so I just added it to my bowl and it worked great.

Ingredients:
1 LB boneless pork
1 tbsp cooking oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp paprika
3 cups water
3 medium carrots cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 LB winter squash cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 8 3/4 ounce can whole kernel corn
4 tsp instant beef bouillon granules
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground red pepper
2 cups torn fresh spinach (optional)

1. Cut meat into 1/2 inch cubes. In large skillet brown half of meat in hot oil. Remove meat, set aside. Brown remaining meat with onion, garlic, and paprika.

2. meanwhile, in a 3 1/2 to 4-quart slow cooker place water, carrots, squash, sweet potato, undrained corn, beef bouillon granules, salt, and red pepper. Stir in all meat and onion mixture. Cover, cook on low heat setting for 10-11 hours or on high heat setting for 5 to 5 1/2 hours.
