With only 4 ingredients and minimal prep time, this pork roast is awesome! Not only is it great for meal prep, but it can also be a healthy, high-protein dish for the whole family.
You can also do so many different things with it. You can pair it with potatoes and carrots ... or you can shred it up for tacos, quesadillas, or nachos!
For the seasoning, I'm a huge fan of a garlic and herb. But, you can also switch it up to whatever you prefer!
Give this a try, and I know it will not disappoint!
