Slow Cooker Herbed Pork Tenderloin

This herbed pork tenderloin will make your taste buds sing! It’s also going to make that ‘what’s for dinner’ daily song that plays in your head melt away…at least for the day.

I love slow cooker meals. I love how fast they are to get going in the morning…especially when it’s a “freezer to slow cooker” meal like this one. With this meal, you can freeze the herbs and pork tenderloin together and then start it cooking in the morning in your slow cooker.

If you want to start cooking it from partially thawed or mostly frozen, then you’re going to want to cook it on low for at least 8 hours. In that time, it will finish thawing and cook too.

I like to serve this one with some veggies and bread…but whatever sides your family loves will be perfect with this herbed pork tenderloin!
