Roasted Pork Loin Recipe

Originally I had planned to have Daddy D grill this bad boy, but since I had a bunch of veggies and potatoes needing to be cooked, I roasted all of them together with the same marinade. Our next pork loin will get seared at high heat, then transferred to indirect heat. But this recipe was amazing, too!

Here’s what you need to make Cuban style Roasted Pork Loin with Rosemary, Dijon Mustard and Garlic:

Marinade:
~ A full head of garlic {I used a garlic press, or you can make a paste.}
~ Lots of rosemary
~ Dijon mustard
~ Olive oil {I used a few pads of butter this time, also}
~ Salt/pepper

Mix all the ingredients together and slather onto the pork loin and veggies. I used every last veggie that was in my fridge at the time… yellow squash, zucchini, onion, carrots, red potatoes and even one small sweet potato made its way into the roasting dish.

I love rosemary and garlic together, and while I am not a crazy mustard fan, it added a zing to the flavor.

Easy Family Recipe: Cuban Pork Loin

The whole thing got served up with a yumtastic salad of tomato, cucumber and feta within a short time. Even Alina loved it..veggies and all! Easy and, other than the cooking time, quick to throw together. A perfect family weeknight meal!

We had left overs the next day, and since there were more veggies than pork, a heaping portion got mashed into Alina’s lunch of Annie’s mac n’ cheese. You know I love to sneak those veggies in!
