A pork roast and a few seasonings, slow cooked and then served over mashed potatoes and gravy made from the drippings. What's not to like! Comfort food at best!! I didn't have dry onion soup mix so I made my own. Most cooks will have the needed ingredients in their pantry. http://www.justapinch.com/recipes/soup/vegetable-soup/dry-onion-soup-mix.html Hope you enjoy! Adapted from recipe on PooreAmy Blog
