• Recipe: Roast Pork and Vegetables

  I haven't posted a recipe in a long time. We tried this earlier in the week, and it was super easy to make.
  
  Here is the original recipe from Everyday Food magazine (March 05, p.80):
  
  3 med baking potatoes (1" pieces)
  3 med zucchini (1" pieces)
  2 med onions (halved, sliced 1/2")
  8 garlic cloves (peeled, smashed)
  2T + 1t olive oil
  4 sprigs fresh rosemary
  salt and pepper
  2 lb boneless center-cut pork loin (tied if desired)
  
  Preheat oven 450F
  On large rimmed baking sheet, toss veggies + garlic w/ 2T oil, rosemary, 2t salt, 1/4t pepper
  Rub pork w/ oil, season
  Place pork on top of veggies
  Roast, toss occasionally until thermometer registers 150F (about 35-40 mins)
  Rest 5 mins, slice thinly
  
  What I would change next time:
  *Add a little more veggies and garlic
  *Not a big fan of rosemary, so I'd skip it next time, or just dried rosemary
  *Add mushroom or summer squash for more color
  *Roast at lower temp (400F?) for longer time 10-15 mins
  
  Sorry we didn't get a good photo, but it was delicious!
