This week on our meal planner we have a delicious recipe for Kalua Pork Sliders. With the pork I bought on sale I threw this pork in the crock pot and this dinner came together in a snap. I loved the smoky flavor of the pork with the sweet pineapple coleslaw. It was like having a bit of Hawaii in my own kitchen. If you need a fresh, new dish this recipe is awesome 🙂

Instructions
