Ok so I said I was trying to get back on the eating and meal planning bandwagon and I’m sticking to it with these pork carnitas.  Especially after little momma made homemade cookies last night for family  movie night and dear good gracious they were DELICIOUS and I couldn’t lay off.  Also, I think it should basically be girl code that if you find a delicious and easy crockpot meal, you HAVE to share it.  So without further ado, I give you my favorite quick and easy recipe for crockpot pork carnitas….My sister in law told me about this quick and easy recipe a year or so ago and it has become a go to favorite.  It’s healthy, its easy, and it feeds a ton of people.  What more could you want?
