Found this crock pot recipe and would love to try, but I think I need to switch around a few ingredients. Any ideas?

It will need some tweaking, arrowroot is not on plan and neither is honey. I am thinking you could leave out the arrowroot and use a bit of gluccomannon in the sauce at the end, but the honey I am not sure

You may be able to make a honey type syrup either with water, xanthum or glucomannan, a tesspoon of black strap molasses for flavor, and maybe maple or other flavoring. Or you could replace the honey by making a fruity type syrup from plan approved jam ( maybe peach?) Use the appropriate amount to stay in guidelines, use straight in place of honey or perhaps thin with water, thicken with glucomannan or xanthum and add a little more plan approved sweetener. I use my homemade jams (with plan approved sweeteners) in sauces often.
