Pork schnitzel with roasted veggies & a creamy mustard Dipper

1 serving prepared 

Here's what you get:


Carrots 
Limoneira pink lemon 
Honey 
Fry seasoning 
Garlic powder 
Pork cutlets 
Yukon Gold potato 
Mayonnaise 
Dijon mustard 
Panko bread crumbs (not pictured, not used)
Sour cream 
Parmesan (substitution)

The protein:

To omit gluten I mixed the garlic powder with parmesan for the coating. Instead of pan frying I added the pork to the veggie pan during the last 13 mins of cooking. Everything was broiled for 3 mins to brown up the parm coating.

The veggies:

I tossed all the veggies in oil and coated with the fry seasoning. These were roasted at 425 for 25 mins total. 

The sauce:

This was easy as usual.  Mix the mayo, honey and mustard then set to the side. 

Extras:

The lemon, why? I don't know.  It's a good lemon though, I used it to make a glass of lemonade saving one wedge for the plate.

The plate:

Lemon
No Lemon


I wish there was something green on the plate other than that this meal was great! I really don't understand what the lemon was for since it wasn't used in the recipe at all. I'm always happy to have fruit so it was cool trying something new. I'll definitely be making this again but adding dill next time.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter.  I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature.  The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot.  The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter.  Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
