I realize the plating is not very appetizing. That's not high on my list at this point. :) Plus we had to keep the garlic cauliflower mash separate from the one without to do a proper taste test.
Our review:
- Pork tenderloin:
I subbed Trader Joe's 21 Seasoning Salute for the Montreal steak seasoning and used coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
A bit sweet from the honey but not too sweet. This was the pork from Costco with no flavor added. Baked at 350 for 45 minutes = perfect!
- Cauliflower mash: Against All Grain
I thought it was great aside from the texture, which wasn't awful, just a bit more liquidy than I would have liked and it could have been blended a tad more. But I was very pleased with the flavor!
:: side note :: I have always thought I was allergic to cauliflower because well I was. I broke out in hives when I had it as a child. So if you don't see any more posts from me you'll know the cauliflower took me. Just kidding of course, BUT I am waiting as we speak to see if I in fact still have an adverse reaction to it or not. I'm hoping not because there are so many other recipes I want to try with it, I've only just begun! Ok back to the dinner.
- Roasted purple Peruvian potatoes: what's not to like? Throw some olive oil, salt and pepper and roast and voila! We got these in our CSA basket so I was really just trying to use them up and have a fail-safe in case the mash went over badly.
- Roasted summer squash: ick. If anyone has a way of cooking this without it getting all mushy, please share!
Ok that's it for now!
