1. Preheat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Dip the pork chops in a dish with the eggs lightly whisked together, then dredge them in another dish through the flour.
2. Lightly spray olive oil in the pan and put the pork chops in. Cook for approximately 4 minutes per side until both sides are lightly browned.
3. Place the pork chops in the bottom of a 4-5 quart slow cooker. Then chop up the onions, bell peppers, mushrooms and place them in a large bowl.
4. Pour the mushroom soup and almond milk over the chopped vegetables and mushrooms. Stir it all together with the remaining whole wheat flour. Then pour it over the pork chops.
5. Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours, or on low for 8-9 hours. When finished, put 2 tablespoons of water in a small dish and mix the corn starch in until it's dissolved. Them mix the cornstarch and water mixture in with the pork chops. It'll start to thicken in approximately 2-3 minutes, then it's ready to serve.
