Hi! We're Ann Kelly and Amber from Recipes We Love. We are thrilled to be doing a guest post on The Shady Porch.
Ann Kelly and I are both Christian, stay-at-home moms and wives who love caring for and cooking for our families. About 15 months ago, I created a recipe group on Facebook for a few friends and, within two months, we had hundreds of members and recipes. At that time, we decided to turn the group in to a blog so that it would be easier to search for recipes.
We both have younger children with food allergies, so you will find a wide variety of recipes from gluten free, to dairy, egg and nut free recipes and, of course, regular recipes. We both have a passion for feeding our family healthy food, though Ann Kelly does a far better job of that than I do.
We wanted to share the recipe from our blog that has gotten the most page views of any recipe; it is a Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin that Ann Kelly threw together in her kitchen one day and is oh so delicious!

I usually make an Easter ham but since it's just me I think this would be nice for Easter Sunday. It looks delicious and I thank you for sharing. I sure wish I would have had these blogs when I was raising my family! They're wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI actually made this for easter a couple years ago. My husband's family and all my family come to our home the week before Easter and it is usually a big crowd so I pulled out 3 crockpots and had this in each one, made cooking so much easier and for a cooler kitchen :)

ReplyDeleteI love the addition of pancake syrup, do you mean maple syrup?- excuse I'm English and some of your ingredient descriptions vary a little for what I'm used to;-) x Rebecca @ Natural Mothers Network x
ReplyDeleteMaple syrup should work but you may not need as much of it. The only different between pancake syrup and maple syrup is that pancake syrup has more corn syrup in it so maple syrup is more pure and will most likely have a stronger taste. Hope this helps and hope you enjoy the recipe!! Amber
DeleteThis looks like an awesome meal,D. I really like the combination of seasons for the Pork, I will be giving this recipe a try, very soon! Hope you are having a great week end and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
