    oven
    60Mins

    Share:

    Ingredients:
    • AdapTable Meals® Onion, Garlic, & Bell Pepper Pork Half Loins
    • 3 tbsp. olive oil, divided
    • 1 tbsp. whole grain Dijon mustard
    • 1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
    • 1 tbsp. pure maple syrup
    • 1 tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
    Dijon Cream Sauce:
    • 1 tbsp. freshly-squeezed lemon juice
    • 1 tbsp. whole grain Dijon mustard
    • 1 to 3 tbsp. water, to thin
    • 2 tbsp. unsalted butter
    • 2 tsp. dried thyme
    • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
    • 2 cloves of garlic, pressed or finely minced
    • Salt and pepper, to taste
    Directions:
    1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. While that’s heating up, pat the tenderloins dry with a paper towel.
    2. In a bowl, prepare the glaze by combining the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire, soy sauce, maple syrup, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Incorporate the ingredients and set aside for later use.
    3. Next, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tenderloins until they are golden brown on all sides to lock in the moisture and caramelize the outside for an extra burst of flavor. Then, transfer the seared tenderloins to a baking sheet and generously brush them with the delicious glaze to coat every surface.
    4. Next, place the tenderloins into the oven for 15 minutes. After that, give them a flip and continue roasting until they reach a perfectly juicy 145° - 150°F. Once they're done, take them out and let them rest 5-10 minutes on a cutting board while you work on whipping up a delicious pan sauce.
    5. Now, melt some butter in the same skillet you used for searing over medium heat. Once it's melted, toss in some minced garlic and sauté until it becomes wonderfully fragrant, about 1 minute.
    6. Next, squeeze in the fresh lemon juice and pour in the heavy cream. Then, add a kick of flavor with some Dijon mustard. Allow the sauce to simmer gently, then sprinkle in some thyme, with salt and pepper to taste.
    7. Keep cooking for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until everything is nicely mixed together. If the sauce becomes too thick, simply add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until you achieve the perfect consistency. Once you're happy with the results, take it off the heat.
    8. Lastly, cut the tenderloins into juicy 1 to 2-inch thick slices, then arrange them on your favorite platter. Pour the rich pan sauce over the slices and add a pop of color with some fresh herbs for that perfect finishing touch!
    9. Serve and enjoy with your favorite side dish!

    Ingredients:
    • 1 package of AdapTable® Meals Roasted Garlic and Herb Pork Loin Chops
    • 1 lb fresh green beans
    • 1 lb sliced baby bella mushrooms
    • 1 tsp olive oil
    • ¼ C salted butter
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    Directions:
    1. Rinse your green beans and then add them to a medium saucepan. Cover them with water and heat the water over high heat until boiling. When the beans are boiling, reduce the heat to medium-high and cover with a lid.
    2. While the beans are cooking, add the mushrooms to a large 10- to 12-inch skillet (cast iron preferred) and cook over medium to medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. After a few minutes of cooking, the mushrooms will start to release some of their moisture. Cook the mushrooms until all of the moisture they have released has been cooked off and the pan looks dry again; this takes roughly 8-10 minutes of cooking.
    3. When the pan looks dry again, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally.
    4. Heat another skillet over medium to medium-high heat and add the olive oil to the skillet.
    5. Cook the pork chops, covered, in the skillet for 2-2 1/2 minutes per side, until the pork reaches 145°F on a meat thermometer.
    6. After the beans have boiled for about 20 minutes, check them for tenderness. You want them to be tender crisp. Let them cook for an additional 5 minutes if they aren't quite done and if they are, drain them well.
    7. When the pork is done cooking, remove it from the pan and let it rest for 1-2 minutes.
    8. When the beans are done cooking and drained, add them to the skillet with the mushrooms and stir to combine. Add plenty of salt and pepper to the mushrooms and green beans in the skillet.
    9. Serve the hot pork chops with the buttery mushrooms and green beans on the side.

    Ingredients:
    • 1 AdapTable® Meals Smokey Mesquite Cooker Ready Pork Roast
    • 1 tbsp. garlic powder
    • 1 tsp. cumin
    • 1 tsp. seasoned salt
    • 1/2 tsp. chili powder
    • 1 C orange juice
    • 1 package empanada dough discs (10 discs), thawed
    • 1/2 C diced and cooked potatoes
    • 1/2 C diced and cooked carrots
    • 1/2 C sliced green olives
    • 1/3 C diced yellow onion
    • 2 tbsp. drained canned chopped green chilies
    • 1 egg mixed with 1 tsp. water
    • 2 packages of yellow rice mix
    Directions:
    1. Place the roast on the slow or pressure cooker with the orange juice. Sprinkle garlic powder, cumin, and chili powder on top. You can either slow cook it for 4 hours on low or use the pressure cooker on high for 45 minutes (natural release).
    2. When cooled enough to handle, shred or dice the meat (depending on how tender the meat is) into small pieces and place in a large mixing bowl. (You can also cook it covered in an oven at 350℉ for 2 ½ hours.)
    3. Once the meat is cooled, mix in the veggies and olives. Taste to see if it needs any additional seasoning.
    4. Next, while keeping the disc on its cellophane wrapper, slightly roll out the dough discs on a flat surface, keeping them round. (I like to work with 2 at a time, keeping the remaining covered so they don’t dry out.
    5. Be mindful that you need to have enough filling for 10 dough discs.
    6. Moisten the edge of each disc with a bit of water, place some of the filling over half, and then carefully fold it over (removing the cellophane as you fold it,) crimping the edges with a fork to seal.
    7. Now, set the discs on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Brush them with a little egg/water wash and cut 2 small holes on the top of each empanada. Allow them to chill for 15 minutes.
    8. If you’re using an air fryer, set your oven at 250℉ to keep the empanadas warm as you cook in batches.
    9. Preheat the air fryer to 370℉ for 4 minutes. Depending on the size of your air fryer, cook as many as it allows. Cook in batches at 370℉ for 8 minutes. (You can turn them over halfway through if you want to.)
    10. Remove them from the air fryer and place them on a pan in the oven to keep them warm as you finish the rest. (You can also bake the entire batch on the sheet pan in the oven at 400℉ for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden.)
    11. Meanwhile, make the rice according to the package instructions. 
    12. To serve, place 2 empanadas on a plate with some of the rice. Salsa, beans, and plantain chips are delicious sides to serve with!

    • 3 tbsp of salted butter, divided
    • 5 garlic cloves, minced

    • 3½ lbs medium-large sweet potatoes
    • 2 tsp sea salt
    • 1 tsp ground black pepper
    • 6 ounces shredded Gruyere cheese
    Directions

    For the Cherrywood and Chipotle Pork Tenderloin

    1. Preheat the oven to 350℉.
    2. Place the pork tenderloin on a sheet pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a meat thermometer reaches 145℉.
    3. Remove the tenderloin from the oven and let rest for 3 minutes. Then slice, season with salt and pepper if desired and enjoy!

    For the Sweet Potato and Gruyere Gratin

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
    2. Add 2 tbsp of butter to a saucepan over medium heat and melt. Add the garlic and herbs then allow to simmer for 1 minute.  Add the cream and Parmesan to the pan and bring to a simmer and stir together.  Remove the cream mixture from the heat and set it aside.
    3. Peel, then slice the sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Add them to a large mixing bowl and toss with salt and pepper.
    4. Grease an oval gratin dish or a 9×9 baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter. Arrange the first layer of sliced sweet potatoes in overlapping rows, following the shape of the dish.  Then add 3 ounces of the shredded Gruyere cheese.  Arrange the second layer of sweet potatoes in the same manner.
    5. Pour the cream mixture over the potatoes, pressing lightly to submerge the potatoes into the liquid (I strained the herbs and garlic pieces out of mine for a silky texture.)
    6. Finally, sprinkle on the remaining 3 ounces of Gruyere cheese, cover with tin foil, and bake for 40 minutes. Then uncover and bake until the top of the gratin is golden and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes longer. Let stand 10 minutes then serve.

    NOTES

    This recipe can be prepped 6 hours ahead.  Cover with foil and chill. Allow to sit out on the counter for 30 minutes -1 hour before baking.

    Ingredients
    • 2 AdapTable® Meals Garlic Butter Sirloin Steaks
    • Minced parsley for garnish, optional
    • 1 1/2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered lengthwise
    • 1/4 C heavy cream or half and half (warm)
    • 2 tbsp butter (melted)
    • 1–2 tbsp milk
    • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1 medium yellow onion, halved
    • 1 C buttermilk
    • 1 C all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 tbsp salt
    • 2 tsp cayenne pepper
    • pinch garlic powder
    • canola oil, for frying
    Directions
    1. Cut the onion in half and very thinly slice into small half rings. Place the onions in a small bowl and submerge in buttermilk. Half an onion is enough for two servings. Let soak for 1 hour on the counter.
    2. Add flour, salt, and cayenne pepper to a separate bowl and mix. Bring oil to 375°F in a small saucepan. 1-2 inches of oil is all you need.
    3. Using tongs, remove the onion from buttermilk and add to the bowl with flour mixture. Dredge until onions are fully coated. Remove from the flour, shaking off any excess, and add to saucepan with the oil. Fry for 30 seconds-1 minute or until onions are just starting to turn golden brown. Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
    4. Add potatoes to a large pot. Fill the pot with cold water, covering potatoes by at least 1 inch. Add salt and bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork with no resistance.
    5. Drain water from the pot and add melted butter and warm cream. I warm butter/cream in short intervals in the microwave. Add garlic powder and mash until potatoes are creamy and smooth. Use a wooden spoon to stir out any remaining lumps. Stir in milk and add salt and pepper to taste. Cover, and set aside.
    6. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and clean the grates well.
    7. Place the steaks face down and sear undisturbed for 5 minutes. Flip and sear for an additional 5 minutes. This is ideal for medium-rare.
    8. For rare, sear for 4 minutes a side. Medium rare, 5 minutes. Medium, 6-7 minutes. Medium well, 8+ minutes. Remember, depending on the size of the steak, the more or less time it will take. When in doubt, use a digital thermometer.
    9. Serve steaks topped with crispy onion rings and a side of mashed potatoes. Garnish with optional minced parsley.

    Melissa’s Grilled Pork Loin Filet with Rainbow Veggie…

    Share:

    Ingredients
    • 1 package AdapTable® Meals Whiskey Black Pepper Pork Loin Filet
    • 1 C cherry tomatoes
    • 1 large orange bell pepper
    • 1 medium yellow summer squash
    • 1 medium green zucchini
    • 1 medium red onion
    • Grill skewers
    • Salt and pepper to taste or another seasoning blend you like
    Directions
    1. Remove the pork from the fridge and let it rest at room temperature while you prepare your vegetables.
    2. The cherry tomatoes are left whole; cut the bell pepper, summer squash, zucchini, and red onion into large but bite-sized pieces, about 1.5 inches square each. For the squashes, I like to cut them into 1-inch rounds and if the rounds are bigger than bite size, I’ll cut the rounds in half to make half-moon pieces.
    3. Thread your vegetables onto your skewers, working in rainbow order if you’d like (tomato, then orange bell pepper, then yellow squash, then zucchini, followed by the red onion). Repeat on the skewer until it’s full but leave an inch or two on both ends to make sure nothing falls off. Repeat on remaining skewers until you’ve used all your vegetables.
    4. When your vegetables are ready, prepare your grill.
    5. Preheat your grill over medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grates (I do this with a cleaning brush and then I dip a paper towel in oil and rub it on the grates; this helps everything to not stick).
    6. Reduce the heat to medium to medium-high, and place your pork tenderloin in the center. The loin has three natural sides — grill each side for 10 minutes, continuing to turn to a new side after each 10 minutes.
    7. Add the vegetables for the last 10 minutes of grilling, turning them once halfway through cooking.
    8. Cook until the pork reaches 145℉. on an instant read thermometer, about 30 to 35 minutes on the grill. Cook the vegetables until they are tender and crisp.
    9. Remove the pork and vegetables from the grill as they are done cooking.
    10. Let the pork rest for 3 minutes before slicing.
    11. Season the vegetables generously with salt and pepper or your favorite seasoning blend.
    12. Serve right away while still hot.

    2. Mix all the slaw ingredients together in a large bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and set in the refrigerator while you prepare the pork.
    3. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Set the pork loin on a parchment lined baking sheet. Set in the oven and cook for 35 minutes.

    Melissa’s Pork Loin Chop Sandwich with Sweet Potato…

    Ingredients
    • 1 package AdapTable® Meals Smokey Mesquite Pork Loin Chop

    • 6 green onions, finely chopped
    • 1/2 C mayonnaise
    • 2 tbsp white or rice vinegar
    • 2 tsp granulated sugar
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
    • 5 brioche or high-quality burger buns for serving
    • Barbecue sauce for serving
    Directions
    1. 15-20 minutes before you plan to cook the meat, remove it from the fridge and let the meat rest at room temperature.
    2. While the pork is resting, make your coleslaw.
    3. Add the chopped coleslaw mix (pre-shredded cabbage and carrots) to a large bowl.
    4. Use a cheese grater to shred the apple into the bowl (leaving the core behind); if you like larger pieces of apple, you can finely chop the apple instead of grating it.
    5. Add the green onions (use both the white and green parts of the green onions for this recipe).
    6. Add the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine. Set aside.
    7. Preheat your grill over high heat. Clean and oil the grates.
    8. Reduce the heat to medium and place the pork chops on the grill.
    9. Cook for 2 to 2.5 minutes on each side or until the pork reaches 145℉. on an instant-read thermometer; these pork chops will cook very quickly. Be sure to not overcook them as it will dry them out.
    10. Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest for 3 minutes.
    11. To make your sandwiches, place a cooked pork chop on the bottom of one bun, top with 1/4 C of the coleslaw mixture, and add 2 tbsp of barbecue sauce on top of the coleslaw. Put the top bun on the sandwich and enjoy! Repeat with remaining ingredients

    Directions
    1. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Add a generous pinch of salt, lower heat and let potatoes simmer for about 15 minutes.
    2. Drain and set aside to cool. Once potatoes are cool enough to handle, halve potatoes lengthwise then lightly toss in oil and place in a grilling basket.

    Laura’s Instant Pot Boneless Ribs & Pinto Beans

    Ingredients
    • 1 package of AdapTable® Meals Kansas City BBQ Style Boneless Pork Loin Backribs
    • 1 C Water or Broth
    • 1/2 C BBQ Sauce
    • 2/3 C Dried Pinto Beans rinsed and soaked overnight
    • 2 C Water
    • 1 Bay Leaf
    • 2 Cloves Garlic minced
    • 3 Tbsp White Onion minced
    • 1/8 tsp Chili Powder
    • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
    • 1/8 tsp Salt
    Directions
    1. Rinse the beans well under cold water. Transfer the beans to a large bowl and fill the bowl with clean water, covering the beans by at least 2 inches. Allow the beans to soak at room temperature for 8-12 hours.
    2. Pour the beans into a large strainer and rinse well under cold water again.
    3. Add the water or broth to the Instant Pot. Set the boneless ribs on top of the liquid in one layer if possible. Set the trivet on top of the meat, as level as possible.
    4. Add the beans and water to a medium-sized ovenproof bowl that will fit inside your Instant Pot. Add the onions, garlic, bay leaf, and seasonings. Stir to combine.
    5. Place the bowl of beans on top of the trivet inside the Instant Pot, adjusting the meat and trivet if necessary so the bowl sits flat and the water doesn’t spill out.
    6. Put the lid on the Instant Pot, turn it close, and turn the steam release valve to the sealing position. Set to high pressure to 15 minutes.
    7. Allow for a natural release, which means that when the timer goes off, do nothing and wait for the pressure to naturally dissipate. It usually takes about 15 minutes. The steam valve will drop down when all the pressure has released.
    8. Remove the lid, and carefully remove the beans and trivet, then remove the ribs.
    9. Turn the broiler on. Lay the ribs on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
    10. Brush the ribs lightly with bbq sauce. Set under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching closely to make sure they don’t burn.
    11. Serve with the beans and your favorite bbq side dishes, like pickled onions, pickles, and coleslaw.

    • 1 C. Fresh Parsley
    • 1-2 Cloves Garlic
    • 1 Lemon Zested

    • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
    Directions
    1. First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Next, wash your potatoes.
    2. Set one potato between two chopsticks. Slice into the potato from top to bottom until your knife hits the chopsticks, leaving about 1/8 inch between each slice. Carefully cut on the smaller ends of the potato so your knife doesn’t slice completely through the potato. Repeat for each potato.
    3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the potatoes and pork loin on top, leaving a little space between them. Drizzle the potatoes with oil, using your fingers to open any slices that might be stuck together, and work the oil in between the slices.
    4. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper and set in the oven and set a timer for 45 minutes.
    5. Food Processor Instructions: Add the parsley, garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice, salt, and pepper to a food processor. Pulse until broken down. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl, and stir to mix in the oil.
    6. Knife Instructions: Finely mince the garlic and parsley. Zest and juice the lemon. Add all ingredients to a small bowl and mix together well. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
    7. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Don’t turn the oven off. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the roast has reached 145 degrees. Set the roast on a plate and cover loosely with foil to allow it to rest.
    8. Put the potatoes back in the oven and roast for another 5-10 minutes, until nice and crispy. Check near the end of the cooking time to make sure they aren’t burning.
    9. Slice the roast. Remove the potatoes from the oven and spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of gremolata onto each potato.

    Laura’s French Onion Pork Chops

    Ingredients
    • 1 lb AdapTable® Meals Roasted Garlic & Herb Pork Loin Chops
    • 3 Tbsp Olive or Avocado Oil
    • 2 Cloves Garlic
    • 1 White Onion
    • 1/2 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
    • 3/4 C  Chicken or Vegetable Broth
    • 1/4 C Coconut Cream
    • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
    • 1/4 tsp Onion Powder
    • 1/8 tsp Salt
    • 1/8 tsp Black Pepper
    • 1/8 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
    • 1/8 tsp Oregano
    • 1/8 tsp Thyme
    • 4 C Green Beans (steamed or roasted)
    • 1 tsp Fresh Parsley
    • Salt and Pepper (to taste)
    Directions
    1. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Pat the pork chops with some paper towels so they’re dry. Season them generously on both sides with all the seasonings, then add them to the hot pan. Don’t move them in the pan as they’re searing, and allow them to brown on each side for about 3 minutes, turning just once. Set them aside on a plate.
    2. Thinly slice the onion and mince the garlic. 
    3. Add sliced onions to the same skillet. Lower the heat and cook on low heat for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened completely. Add the garlic and vinegar, season with salt, and stir.
    4. Last, whisk in the coconut cream and broth, scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Return the pork chops to the skillet. 
    5. Bring to a simmer and cook everything together over low heat for another 5-6 minutes or until cooked through (the time will depend on the thickness of your pork chop). Use a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature once it’s rested – it should be 145°F.
    6. Sprinkle with some parsley and serve your pork chops with a spoonful of onions and sauce, and whatever green veggie you like!
    7. Laura likes to serve with green beans but roasted broccoli, roasted potatoes, asparagus, or a simple salad.

    11. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the skillet to remove any bits that stuck to it. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until reduced by half.
    12. Taste and adjust for salt, acidity or sweetness.
    13. Take the skillet off the stove, and when the sauce is no longer simmering, stir in the butter. Discard rosemary.
    14. Add the pork chops back into the pan and drizzle some of the sauce on top. Add back the tomatoes.
    15. Sprinkle some chopped fresh parsley on top and garnish with a few fresh rosemary sprigs before serving.

    • Ranch Dressing (optional)
    Directions
    1. If using AdapTable Meals® Carnitas Pork: Skip to #2.

    3. Add the roast and stock to your Instant Pot. Turn pressure to High and cook for 40 minutes.

    6. Make the Corn Salsa by adding together the Raw Corn Kernels, Pickled Onions,  Jalapeno, Avocados, Lime, Cilantro, Salt, and Pepper.

    Ingredients
    • 1 AdapTable® Meals Carnitas Pork Roast
    • 1 Jalapeno, sliced
    • 1/4 C Crumbled Cotija Cheese, or reduced fat Feta Cheese
    • 8 oz Green Chile Enchilada Sauce
    • Cilantro for garnish
    • Lime cut into 1/8ths
    • ¼ Red Onion, cut into rings, or diced
    Directions
    1. Remove dough from fridge (I picked up a nice deep-dish pizza pan that worked beautifully, but a regular pizza stone or pan will do!) Spray your pizza pan and press dough out to form crust and bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
    2. Once the dough is finished, spoon on your enchilada sauce to cover the pie, like you would a pizza sauce! Add your crumbled cheese.
    3. Once the Carnitas are done, try not to become to overwhelmed with that amazing aromatic smell that will fill your kitchen & shred (it will shred like butter!) You only need 10 oz for this recipe- so save the rest (hello easy meal prep!) Cover the top of the pizza with carnitas, add your jalapeno, onion, cilantro and thin slices of cut lime and return to oven for 10 minutes, put on broil for the last few if you like a crispy top!
