When the temperatures begin to drop and the first hints of autumn color the landscape, there’s nothing quite like a slow-cooked meal to warm the heart and soul. This Slow Cooker Minnesota Pork Chop Casserole is a beloved dish in our home, embodying the comforting flavors of the Midwest. With roots tracing back to early settlers who made use of their harvests and livestock, it’s a recipe that’s been passed down through generations. One bite of these tender, juicy pork chops nestled in a cozy bed of rice and vegetables, and you’ll understand why it’s been adored for so long.
This hearty casserole pairs beautifully with a side of honey-glazed carrots or a crisp garden salad for a bit of freshness.

And don’t forget to end the meal with a warm apple pie or some spiced pumpkin bars to really capture the essence of a Midwestern fall evening.
