Hi Myrna & Sara, It's always great to see you both here at the Forum. Sara, the way I eat Squash & Zucchini I never can grow enough by myself, however, as I said before, we participate in a couple of Community Gardens, so there's always enough to go around. Of course, I'm also at one Farmer's Market or another a couple of days each week. Just have to have those fresh Vegetables, whenever they are available. Matter of fact, I'm going to be attending a Tomato Tasting this weekend over at the NC A&T University Farm, where we'll be tasting and grading up to 40 different varieties of Tomatoes. Really looking forward to that! Today, we're going to fix Supper for tonight and Lunch for two for tomorrow. I love this herbed roast so much that I make it as often as I can. It's wonderful for those special occasions, particularly when served with sweet potatoes and corn muffins. Also, it makes a lot, so you'll have leftover pork for the quick lunch recipe that follows. Savory Pork Roast 
Ingredients
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 teaspoons dried marjoram
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
- 1 boneless whole pork loin roast (4 pounds)
Directions
- Combine the seasonings; rub over roast. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
- Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 80 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Yields 9-12 servings (or 3-4 servings plus leftovers).
I like to prepare these quick toasted sandwiches whenever I have extra pork. I just spread pizza sauce over hoagie buns right before adding sliced pork, Italian salad dressing and mozzarella cheese. Italian Pork Hoagies 
Ingredients - 6 hoagie buns, split
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 12 slices cooked pork (1/4 inch thick and 2 ounces each)
- 1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
- 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Directions - Place bottom and top halves of buns, cut side up, on an ungreased baking sheet. Spread pizza sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Top with pork; drizzle with salad dressing. Sprinkle with cheese.
- Bake at 350° for 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and tops of buns are lightly toasted. Replace bun tops. Serves 6.
Wishing You A Bright & Beautiful Week, Phil
