I once served these pizza pork chops at a gathering with friends. It was dinner so I had the time to prepare them in my crockpot. I didn’t regret making such a simple but classic recipe. I came home with an empty serving dish! They literally dug in the moment I placed the serving dish on the table along with pasta. I served the pasta separately for this.
One of our friends over at Moms With Crockpots has this to say about the recipe:
“Spaghetti is a very economical meal, but I am always looking for ways to make it unique and change it up a bit. These Slow cooker Pizza Pork Chops are kid friendly and delicious! Try them this week instead of boring ole’ spaghetti.”
It’s definitely kid friendly because my sons love them! I can’t wait to try cooking this in one of our reunions. I am pretty sure all the kids in the family will fall in love with this too!
