This easy weeknight roasted pork loin with lemony potatoes is the perfect way to get a wholesome meal on the table with little effort. The golden potatoes are roasted to perfection with lemon infused olive oil and garlic making them incredibly tender and delicious. The pork loin is perfectly flavored with a lemon herb marinade which compliments the lemony potatoes.
Since this is an easy weeknight meal, we're keeping it simple with a store bought lemon herb marinade for the pork loin. I like G. Hughs Sugar Free Lemon Herb Marinade. (affiliate link) It has lots of good flavor and no high fructose corn syrup or sugar. I purchased it at Walmart, but you can use any lemon herb marinade you like.
I found lemon infused olive oil (affiliate link) at Aldi, but you should be able to find it in most grocery stores. It adds so much flavor to both salads and prepared dishes.
For a really easy side dish, microwave some frozen broccoli florets and season with butter and salt.

Beef and noodles is a popular comfort food here in the midwest, especially this time of year. It's always been one of our favorite leftover makeover meals when we have leftover roast beef. I made it a whole meal by adding spinach, mushrooms, and onions which added so much flavor and lots of healthy vitamins and minerals.
This is one of those easy weeknight meals you can throw together quickly and don't even need a recipe. Simply boil a pot of water and cook the noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute the onions and mushrooms in olive oil until caramelized. Then heat the leftover beef and broth. Add the noodles, mushrooms and onions, and spinach stirring to combine. Season to taste and enjoy.
What if I don't have leftover roast beef?
If you don't have leftover roast beef, you can make great beef and noodles using canned beef. Canned beef will have some nice broth in it which will add lots of good flavor too.
What other flavor variations can you make?
You could use canned chicken or leftover chicken to make chicken and noodles or even try canned tuna. This would also be delicious with leftover turkey or roast pork. You will need some broth to add moisture and flavor, but could use beef, turkey, chicken, or vegetable broth. This is a great use for leftover broth. I always freeze any leftover broth so I can use it later. You could also use frozen peas in place of the spinach. If you want to make it vegetarian, this would be a hearty and delicious meal made with veggies and vegetable broth.
