Tomato Basil Insalata over Sliced Broiled Pork Loin and Mashed Potatoes.
I ate more tomato insalata as a kid than I ate regular salad, and we ate a lot of regular salad! So, this is a take on that salad, which is awesome during the summer, over quickly cooked but still tender pork, and some nice rich mashed potatoes. Taking a bite of the pork, mashed potatoes, and insalata together will just make your night.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Boil in a large pan enough water to cover the potatoes, and then add the potatoes.
- 2
Drain the potatoes, and set aside for a moment.
- 3
Add the first six ingredients into a medium mixing bowl, lightly toss to mix, and set aside.
- 4
Season the pork loin, and, by that, I mean salt and pepper (and granulated garlic, if you are like me) them to your liking, and place them into a single layer in a very large flat pan.
- 5
Broil the pork a few minutes on each side, about 6 or 7 minutes per side, I'd say, until the loin is just barely cooked through. You need to keep an eye on it every other minute or so. Set it aside.
- 6
Now add the butter and salt and milk to the potatoes, and mash to a nice consistency. I like little lumps in my mashed potatoes, but to each his or her own.
- 7
OK, plating! One to two half cup plops of mashed potatoes on a plate, depending on whether you have a hunger like a beast, incline slice one of the loins and use your knife to gently lift the whole sliced loin onto the potatoes, add a little liquid from the pan over the loin and potatoes, and then generously adorn the loin with the insalata.
- 8
OK, eating! Get a little bit of the potatoes and the pork and the insalata in every bite. I think it works with either white or red wine.

Because the recipe is so simple, the flavors of the ingredients really shine!If you season both the pork and the potatoes enough that you can eat either one on its own, the seasoning will be just right. For 4 servings. Recipe by mipon

Simple Lasagne-Style Mashed Potatoes Simple Lasagne-Style Mashed Potatoes
This is a recipe that I thought of when I had to use up some leftover meat sauce. If you make lots of meat sauce and freeze it, it can be used in many other dishes later on. The mashed potato lasagne in the photos have been made in large cocottes and sprinkled with pizza cheese rather than finely grated cheese. Melty cheese slices also work well.Please use as much or as little butter as you'd like. This dish tastes great when even only a small amount is used.You can add more milk to the mashed potatoes if you wish.When you are using 2 cocottes, remember to split the mashed potatoes and meat sauce into halves.Please keep any eye on the lasagnes in the oven so that they don't burn.
