You want a cheap, easy meal to serve 4? Healthy protein, vegetables, and whole grain?

Get out your InstaPot, set it to sauté, and add one to 2 tablespoons of olive oil. When the oil gets hot, brown about 1 kg of boneless, lean pork. I used a pork loin I bought on sale yesterday for $7. Add one small cabbage, quartered, core removed. Add two onions, roughly chopped. Add two apples, peeled, cored, and cut into eighths. (1/2)

@mlanger Gonna have to try that, but in my dutch oven since I don't have an InstaPot.

@frog I think it could be done in a slow cooker, too. Just adjust the cooking time. If you overcook it, the apples will literally disappear. If you undercook it, the pork won't shred. There's no need to add any liquid -- at least not in the InstaPot and probably not with a very tight fitting lid.

My grandfather used to make something like this but added caraway seeds; I don't think he put the apples in.

@mlanger I figure I'll just simmer it until the apples are al dente.
