One day of the slow cooker pulled pork week is always busier than the rest. You'll be glad to have a refrigerator full of leftovers for that day.

Be sure to choice a brand that is not only low in calories, but low in sodium and sugar as well. If you really want a low fat meal, don't use as much meat and replace with whole grains and beans.
