This is the Tyson already made roast pork that I bought cheap like two weeks ago, the roasted red potatoes from the other night, and some string beans that I braised. The pork was nice and tender (as can be expected of something coming out of a vacuum-sealed bag), and the gravy was tasty, very close to being a beef gravy. The potatoes were still pretty good. I reheated them in the oven, and I think that kept them from getting really mushy in the microwave. I have a few regrets about the beans - they were kind of old, and I didn't have fresh garlic to cook with the beans. All in all, though, this made for a good, easy dinner on a night when I came back at 7 p.m. after a relatively grueling work day.
Here's a nickel's worth of free advice: Get more than four hours of sleep. Okay, that's a command, but I had good intentions.
P.S. Thomas had another pound of ground beef, so we had tacos again for lunch and ate up the rice and beans. It was a glorious lunch. I'm certain that I could never get tired of tacos, soft or fried, guac or no guac, chicken, beef, carnitas, asada, al pastor, shrimp, or scallops. Heaven must have a guilt-free all-you-can-eat taco bar.
