recipe Dinner Recipe: Chicken Alfredo Lasagna
Servings: 8
Taste of Home ~ Step by Step

Dad’s favorite roast pork was rubbed with cinnamon, thyme, basil and lemon. He loved thick slices and wanted only a salad to finish off the meal.
Recipe by: Lorraine Caland ~ Shuniah, Ontario




    Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons dried basil
  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 boneless pork loin roast (3 to 4 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 medium apple, cut into wedges
  • 1 medium onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 medium lemon, cut into wedges
  • 1 fresh rosemary sprig

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 325°. In a small bowl, mix flour, basil, thyme, cinnamon, salt and pepper; rub over pork.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Brown roast on all sides. Place roast in a shallow roasting pan, fat side up. Arrange apple and onion around roast. Squeeze lemon juice from 1 wedge over pork; add lemon wedges to pan. Place rosemary over pork.
  • Roast 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 145°. Remove roast, onion and apple to a serving platter; tent with foil. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing.


recipe Desert Recipe: Pistachio Bundt Cake
Servings: 12
Taste of Home ~ Step by Step

Pistachio pudding mix gives this moist cake a pretty tint of green. As it bakes, the outside browns nicely to form a slightly crunchy crust. The cake slices beautifully and would make a fun dessert for St. Patrick's Day.
Recipe by: Becky Gant ~ South Bend, Indiana

    Ingredients:
  • 1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
  • 2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant pistachio pudding mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil

  • Glaze:
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter, softened
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons whole milk

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pudding mixes, water, eggs and oil; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
  • Pour into a greased and floured 10-in. fluted tube pan. Bake at 350° for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients, adding enough milk to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over cake.
