Pork Roast, Mashed Potatoes, & Green Beans
The Pork Roast : Preheat the oven to 350. Sprinkle the top of a 5.5 lb pork roast with garlic powder, basil, and a bit of salt. Bake for 60-80 minutes (until internal temp reaches 140). Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice into 23 slices, then cut them each in half for a total of 46 slices. 3 in each lunch, 1 lunch gets 4 of the smaller end pieces.
The Potatoes : I bought a 5 lb bag of Yukon Gold potatoes. I forget exactly how many I peeled, but I would guess it was 3.5-4 lbs. Peel and boil the potatoes, then mash with a few tbsp of butter (I used Kerrygold this week), garlic powder, basil, and just enough milk to get the right consistency. Each lunch gets a big spoonful.
The Beans : Steam 64 oz of frozen beans with a bit of olive oil and some garlic powder. Add 8 chopped mushrooms when the beans are almost done. In a separate pan, saute 2 chopped yellow onions with olive oil and garlic powder. When the onions are done, mix them with the beans. Each lunch gets 2 large spoonfuls.
I got 15 lunches made this week.
