This is another simple, yet satisfying and hearty meal the whole family will like. You need an hour or so however to get the meat cooked through and tender, so depending on your daily schedule, this might be best reserved for the weekend. The meat can be served over, or with any number of side dishes. I chose mashed potatoes…as I choose mashed potatoes for just about everything, and can eat them for all three meals a day. And they go perfect with the gravy that this recipe makes. Can’t wait for the leftovers tomorrow!!
Yum!!
