In about a week our tables will be overflowing with tons of great foods. I’ll spend hours in the kitchen next week preparing for the big day. All that effort for just one meal seems crazy, but it’s so worth it.

Of course I’ll still have to feed my crew regular meals each day so you better believe I have a menu filled with easy and delicious meals. Weeknights are already hectic and this time of year it’s intensified. That’s why I look to Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork for to serve up a meal that’s simple but DELICIOUS!

When I know that I will have a lot on my plate, I just pull out my slow cooker and cook up a batch of Easy Slow Cooker Chili Verde! It’s absolutely amazing and only takes about 5 minutes of my day to make.

You pretty much just throw everything in the pot and let it go. I even save time by using a tray of heat and eat rice so that I can serve it up FAST!
