Cook a Pork Roast – Serve it Three Times!

I found a fantastic deal on a boneless pork shoulder roast.  Usually I’ll cut it and freeze portions for later use, but it seems that we’re always looking for something quicker – a week night kind of meal.  So decided to cook it up and freeze the cooked portions – and later made Carnitas Soft Tacos, Pork and Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie and Pork Fried Rice.  Want to know more?

Split the meat into three portions and pour 1/3 of the liquid in with each (save out a little extra in one for the gravy in the shepherd’s pie!)

Freeze each portion until you are ready to make the meal.
