Does this sound gross?

I have a frozen (thawing) pork tenderloin that is marinated in teriyaki sauce. I was thinking I would put it in the crockpot with more teriyaki and add frozen veg. I'm trying to use what we have on hand, but also don't want to ruin food.

what kind of veggies? i would think putting them in the crockpot might make them kinda soggy... i'd probably stir fry them with some of the sauce/juice for a couple minutes and eat that with the pork & rice.

Mmm. I'd have to check. Some mix with broc and carrots. I'm not sure why I bought it. I have no clue on how to use frozen veg if not in a soup or casserole.

i'd stir fry them personally, but i think soggy broccoli is gross so that's just me.

Carrots should be ok since they are more dense but I'd hold off on the broccoli. You could always add them in about 30-60 min before you want to eat and that should be enough time to cook it with out over cooking it.

I agree with fly that I think I'd stir fry the veggies. The veggies will probably come out soggy and I'd be afraid of the veggies being to salty with all that teriyaki sauce. I think for the pork, I'd pan cook it for about 5 min per side and then finish it off in the oven.

Glad I didn't do the veg in the crockpot. I stir fried them separately and it all turned out pretty well! Thanks!
