Perfect Paleo Roast

I think the perfect paleo meal has to be a good old Sunday Roast!

I usually do this with chicken, but as its Christmas we thought we would treat ourselves to a pork joint. Now I won't pretend it was as lean as it could have been, but like I said, it's that time of year, we are allowed to cut ourselves a bit of slack!

Ingredients
Pork roasting joint
Parsnips
Beetroots
Carrots
Onions
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

1) Peel the beetroots and cut them in half. Peel the carrots and cut into big thick strips and do the same with the parsnips (I tend not to peel these). Peel the onions and cut into quarters.
2) Place the pork in the oven on its highest setting for the first 15 mins, then turn down to about 220 degrees for the remaining cooking time.
3) When the meat has 1 hour to go, add the vegetables to the same pan with a little olive oil if necessary and season with salt and pepper.



That is it! It's so easy. Cooking the mean and vegetables together not only makes the veg taste great, but saves on washing up too! You can follow this recipe substituting the pork for any other meat - chicken is a personal favourite! Perfect to beat the Sunday evening blues on these cold, snowy winter days.
