This recipe came from Denim and Dots.

This turned out very good. I think next time I will put the chops on the bottom of the slow cooker then place the apples and onions on top to prevent the chops from drying out. I used homemade chicken broth and Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar.
I decided this week I wanted to reconcile with using herbs and spices, hence the thyme. I didn't use a whole lot, but I used enough that I could taste it in the final product. Here are the herbs and spices I used this week: thyme, paprika, chili powder and oregano. Go me!
