I try to plan out our dinner menu a month at a time
and I love it when I make Sunday pot roast. Here's why.
Saturday night.
4-5 pound shoulder pork roast rubbed with
whatever seasoning is handy. I like
using onion soup mix with mushroom.
Put it in the crock pot on warm around 8pm.
Cut up carrots, celery and whatever veggies I want
and put them in a bowl in the fridge.
Cut up twice as many veggies as you'll need.
Sunday morning around 7-8am.
Add the veggies to the crock pot
and 1 &1/2 of chicken stock or apple juice.
Turn crock pot up to low.
Sunday afternoon around 1pm.
Take out roast and veggies put on plate.
Take leftover juices from crockpot and put in a jar or cup.
Place in fridge.
Eat roast!! But save about 3 pounds of it.
Monday night. Enchiladas!
Take about a pound of pork and shred it.
(Two forks is the easiest way)
Cook with a packet of enchilada seasoning according to directions.
Place 2-3 large spoonfuls in flour tortillas, roll up and place
seam side down. Pour on enchilada sauce, top with cheese, cover with foil
and bake at 350 for 30 mins.
Tuesday night Pot pie!!
Cube up 1 pound of the pork.
cut up left over veggies.
( You should have some leftover from Sunday)
Take the leftover juices and spoon off fat
that has floated to the top.
Put in a small sauce pan and heat up until it's a
liquid. Meanwhile mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch
with 2 tablespoons of water. Mix quickly so it's combines.
Put meat, veggies and gravy in 9x9 pan.
Top with either biscut dough (bisquick or biscuts ina tube)
or frozen puff pastry ( thaw it out for 40 minutes first)
Bake for 30-40 minutes at 350.
Wedsenday night BBG pulled pork sandwiches!
Shred the last of the pork, Put in small suacepan with lots of the favorite bbq sauce. Cook till heated through. Put meat in buns.
That's why I love Sunday roast. Makes my week so much easier.
