This recipe doesn’t exactly fall in the “light and refreshing” category of foods we’re used to seeing this time of year, but I promise: this Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin is actually quite perfect for summertime!

I love using my slow cooker year-round, but it’s especially helpful during the summer. Who wants to heat up their oven (and therefore, their whole house) when it’s hot outside? I certainly don’t, so I try to avoid using the oven for prolonged periods of time during the summer (at least, if I can help it). The slow cooker is the perfect solution for cooking all-in-one, wholesome meals without having to heat up the oven.

Additionally, if you haven’t figured it out by now, I’m pretty lazy when it comes to Paleo cooking (yep, I admit it). It’s not that I don’t want to invest the extra time into it, it’s just that I’m usually too busy (or not feeling quite well enough) to create extravagant time-consuming dishes. I think most people can relate to the busy part! It gets exhausting to prepare and cook almost every single meal from scratch (and let’s not forgot the clean up), so I’m always looking for shortcuts and easy ways to do it and still be able to consume the healthiest foods. Throwing all my ingredients into a pot and pressing “start” is about as easy as it gets. Plus, you can make bigger batches and have lots of leftovers. Yay for us lazy (or busy) folk!

This recipe for Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin is both Paleo, AIP, and Whole30 friendly. It’s also virtually fool-proof, so you should end up with tender, moist pork every time.

By the way, I’m sure you could make a version of this Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin recipe in a pressure cooker as well. I just haven’t yet experimented with my pressure cooker yet (yes, I’m late to the party, as usual). So for now, I’m sharing the slow cooker instructions. I use this 6.5 quart slow cooker, and it’s one of my favorite kitchen gadgets ever.

Okay, now on to the recipe for easy Paleo, AIP, Whole30 friendly Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin!

    Would this meal be freezer friendly? It looks like it is, but didn’t know if you’ve ever tried it that way and cooked it later? I have some friends that are aip or DF and gf and we are doing a crock pot freezer meal club!

      Hi Lauren! Yes, this recipe should freeze just fine, and I think it would work perfectly for a crockpot freezer meal club. Thanks for checking it out! 😊

#invisibledisabilitiesweek : This is me about thre #invisibledisabilitiesweek : This is me about three years ago at at a family party (here with my Auntie Agnes 💕). I woke up that morning and got ready, put on some makeup and had some color in my cheeks, went to the party and pretended everything was just fine. What nobody knew that day was that I was so weak and sick, I was secretly holding myself up by leaning on tables and chairs, so I could stand up and try to hold a normal conversation. The rest of the time, I found excuses to sit down and hoped that no one would notice how lousy I felt. My body had started experiencing a new Crohn’s flare, and I would end up in the hospital just a few days later. Just a few weeks after that, I’d end up in surgery and would get my ileostomy because we’d run out of options, and it was my only hope for survival (second pic was taken two days after surgery).
.
.
But on this day, nobody knew. I looked perfectly “normal.” This is how it is with invisible illness and invisible disability. In fact, every day is like this when living with chronic illness - experiencing ongoing symptoms of pain, weakness, and malaise that no one else can see.
.
.
We don’t share these stories because we are looking for pity or sympathy. We share for the purpose of awareness, to help others understand why that person who “looks fine” may need extra accommodations, medications, a disabled placard, or simply extra time to accomplish everyday tasks.
.
.
I still get self conscious when parking in a disabled spot, no matter how awful I might be feeling in that moment, for fear of judgement from those who can’t see my symptoms. 🙈 Please remember that we have no idea what someone else is going through simply by looking at them. Please remember to be kind!
.
.
It’s Invisible Disabilities Week, so I’ll be sharing more in my stories!

Hello friends! It’s been a while since I’ve po Hello friends! It’s been a while since I’ve posted, and I think it’s because I’ve been battling a lot of anxiety lately. While self-isolation is nothing new for me (thanks, Crohn’s! 👍😂), there’s the new added stress of being in the “high-risk” category and trying to avoid exposure to the virus, all while scrambling to find my regular necessities, food and medical supplies during this time (not just for myself but for my other high-risk family members). My symptoms are exacerbated with stress, and the last thing I want is to end up in the hospital and take up a bed that someone else will need. Meanwhile, for some reason, I’ve been more busy than ever (oh, how I long to be one of those bored people who make and post TikTok videos all day 😩).
.
.
But whenever I’m starting to feel overwhelmed, I’m able to gain some perspective when I think about all the healthcare workers and on the front lines, as well as all the essential workers (first responders, and grocery store workers, delivery workers, etc.) who are working feverishly to keep us all safe, healthy, and functioning as normally as possible. My thanks goes out to all of you in those categories, and well as to my friends and family who have offered us help with shopping and groceries during this time.
.
.
And I’m also grateful to those of you who are not necessarily high-risk but are taking all of this seriously by social distancing and sheltering in place. As a chronic illness warrior, I thank you!
.
.
Prayers and love to everyone struggling with anxiety or trying to make sense of this pandemic. The unknown is scary, but I find comfort in knowing there are so many caring people out there and the fact that we’re all in this together. 🙏🏻❤️

These are so easy to make and require only three ingredients: chocolate, coconut oil and of course, strawberries! .

I especially love using @equalexchange chocolate chips because they are allergen-friendly: soy-free and dairy-free plus organic and fair trade (not to mention immensely delicious)! Bonus: this recipe is both Paleo and vegan (I.e. sure to please just about everyone). ❤️
