Ingredients You Need to Make This Slow Cooker Chile Verde Pork Enchiladas Recipe:

How To Make This Slow Cooker Chile Verde Pork Enchiladas Recipe:
When you are ready to make your slow cooker verde pork enchiladas, pull out your slow cooker and spray it with nonstick cooking spray to avoid the pork from sticking to the bottom of the slow cooker.
Then place the pork chops into the slow cooker and add the chopped onion, diced green chiles, verde salsa, diced tomatoes, and the taco seasoning all into the slow cooker.
Now, place the lid on the slow cooker and set it to low for 5-6 hours or high for 3 hours.
When the pork is done cooking (it should be falling apart at this point), use a fork to shred the pork into bite-sized pieces and then mix it into the sauce in the slow cooker.
After the pork is shredded, preheat the oven to 350 and get out your 9×13 in baking pan and pour one can of the green enchilada sauce in the bottom of the pan.
Next, take your tortillas and scoop a portion of the pork mixture onto each tortilla and then roll the tortilla up.
Place the tortillas seam sides down into the baking pan, on top of the enchilada sauce.
Once you have all of the tortillas in the pan, sprinkle the Monterey Jack Cheese over top and place it in the oven at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is nicely melted.
Then carefully remove the pan, serve up each enchilada and top it with some fresh cilantro, or any of your other favorite toppings and enjoy!
To Make Slow Cooker Enchiladas You Will Need:
- Slow cooker (THIS one works great!)
- Large spoon
- 9×13 inch pan

Which Tortilla is Best For Enchiladas?
This is definitely a personal preference thing. However I tend to enjoy using flour tortillas for enchiladas. They seem to hold up better when they cook in the oven.
You can even make your own tortilla with The Café Sucre Farine’s recipe for the best ever homemade tortillas. But you can also keep it simple and grab a package from the store.
I’ve really been digging the carb balance ones that you can get now. They still taste delicious and will work great.
Toppings to Have for Enchiladas?
We give you everything to make the best slow cooker enchiladas. It’s up to you to perfect them to your tastebuds with your favorite toppings. Here is a list of some of our favorite toppings to serve with enchiladas:
- Fresh cilantro
- Guacamole
- Sour creme
- Salsa (corn salsa, verde, or regular)
- Queso
- Green onions
Switch Out the Meat
If you don’t love pork chops, you can use other meats! You can cut up a pork roast and use that, or ground beef (but make sure to cook the meat ahead of time), chicken breasts. Really any you like should work well in this recipe!
