When you think “health food” or “fitness food”, pulled pork probably isn’t a recipe that immediately comes to mind.  It’s true, most traditional pulled pork recipes are doused in sugar-laden barbecue sauces, and some are even cooked in root beer or Dr. Pepper.

But pulled pork can be prepared in other ways and can definitely be part of a healthy, well-balanced diet.

Oh…and if you think that healthy eating is “too hard”, takes “too much time”, or is “too expensive”, then this recipe is for you because it solves all of those problems.  It’s inexpensive and crazy simple.  All you have to do is chop an onion, season a pork roast, throw it in a slow cooker, and walk away.

This shredded pork recipe is one of my go-to’s.  I make it regularly because it’s simple, it’s versatile, and it makes a lot of meat.  It’s perfect for meal prep or for parties.  Make this on Sunday and you’ll have a prepared protein source for the week.

Pair it with salads or coleslaw.  Or get creative and use it to stuff peppers or sweet potatoes.  You can also vary flavours by combining it with different homemade barbecue sauces.  I have a few posts to add with all of the dishes I’ve prepared using pulled pork, so be sure to subscribe below so you don’t miss out.
