The combination of sweet and savory is something I absolutely love. Salted caramel, peanut sauce — both great examples of when sweet and savory combine in just the right way to create a match made in heaven. In the recipe below, we make delicious pork chops with sweet cranberries paired with fresh herbs for the perfect meal.
This recipe can go straight into the slow cooker to cook and serve or be sealed in a zip-lock bag and stored in the freezer for two to three weeks. It's simple to prep, and there are no extra ingredients to add after freezing. I also like to make this recipe with chicken and beef. The sweetness of the cranberries goes so well with all three.
