Meal Prep Monday : 3/26/18


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.
