  1. I am looking for a recipe in a recipe booklet that came with my crock pot, that I received as a bridal shower gift in 1977. The recipe I’m looking for is Sweet and sour pork. My crock pot is a olive green Rival, with pictures of vegetables around the base. If any one can share this it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,
    Elaine
