Mushroom & Apple Butter Slow Cooker Porkchops

You know it. The best part of using a slow cooker is walking in the door at the end of the day with the smell of dinner meeting your nose at the door! This day was even better because I was home smelling dinner cooking most of the day. I have found that pork chops can sometimes turn out very tough, but never in the slow cooker. This recipe has only a few ingredients and is super simple to put together, but has very deep and interesting flavors.

Onions, mushrooms, pork chops, cream of mushroom soup, Dijon mustard, apple butter and fresh thyme...that's all you need. Put in the first 3 ingredients. Mix together the next 3. Pour that mixture in. Lay you thyme (still on the stem) on the top. Cook on low for 8 - 10 hours. Delicious dinner, done!

I served this with stuffing I had frozen from Christmas. You could also serve with potatoes, rice or noodles.

1 large onion, sliced
8 oz button mushrooms, cut in half
4 pork chops

4 TB apple butter
4 -5 sprigs thyme

Directions
Put the first three ingredients in the slow cooker. Mix together the next three ingredients. Add to slow cooker. Lay thyme sprigs on top. Cook on low for 8 - 10 hours.
