I saw this recipe for Minnesota Pork Chops on a friend’s blog Norine’s Nest. I knew the minute I saw this recipe I had to try it in the slow cooker. I am guessing this recipe is named Minnesota pork chops because wild rice is grown in Minnesota.

Though after I had made the recipe I looked at my box of wild rice and saw that it is from California, though I decided to not call this California pork chops, where ever you get your wild rice from this meal will be good.

I didn’t change much from Norine’s recipe except I did use Minute® rice and wild rice instead of a rice blend. Minute rice always does well for me as does wild rice in the slow cooker. Did you know that wild rice isn’t actually rice it’s really a grain, no wonder there is such a texture difference?

I really enjoyed the flavor of the mushrooms with the wild rice. The pork chops were very tender as well.

Sarah’s Notes

Can I use regular rice instead of Minute Rice?

No, standard rice will not work in the slow cooker. It gets chalky and mushy.
