Crockpot Maple Pumpkin Pulled Pork | 21 Day Fix Recipes

Day #5 of our Free Crockpot Clean Eating Challenge, and today was this great fall recipe, Maple Pumpkin Pulled Pork.

I’m not going to lie, when I first mixed it up and stuck it in the crockpot,  was feeling a little skeptical on how this might turn out. Even once it was fully cooked several hours later, I still felt like I wasn’t sure. But once I shredded it with two forks and let it sit for another 30 minutes while it absorbed all the flavors, I could tell it was going to be awesome, and it WAS! The maple and pumpkin aren’t overpowering at all, they are a hint of flavor and really delicious. So give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments!!

For the sides, I was planning on making sweet potato crisps, but I got a little lazy and reused my leftover zucchini & summer squash from the Salmon meal.
