I just had to share this slimming world BBQ pulled pork recipe. It’s a wonderful low fat slow cooker recipe, which makes the perfect easy midweek meal.
It’s hard adapting to a healthy eating plan, for me the key was making it a life change to healthy low fat recipes. Deciding that actually changing my thought plan on how what and when I eat was much more productive than feeling I am on a diet and wanting to eat everything in sight.
Easy slimming world recipes are always a winner. Don’t you just love a slimming work slow cooker recipe? And this Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Recipe is a great example of how low fat food can taste great.
This is a recipe I have cooked many times when having friends over for supper and it always goes down so well. Which generally results in my guests taking the recipe away with them to make at home. I love how you can make dinner parties healthier occasions, which makes entertaining a whole lot easier.

One of my favourites here in the UK, apart from fish and chips.
Buying this outside can be pricey so I am planning to make my own.
Do you do it with like slow cooking for hours? Is there a faster way?
Do you recommend making your own bun?
That line about changing your thought plan rather than feeling like you’re on a diet really landed with me. It’s such a subtle but powerful shift, and it makes the recipe feel like part of a kinder approach to eating.
