Bottom Round Roast with Onion Gravy
After 4 hours at low, the onions were still hard and the roast wasn't done. I now have the sucker in the microwave cooking. I should have just cooked it in the crock pot like I always do: Throw the roast in, put a quartered onion and some garlic on top, sprinkle with powdered onion and beef broths, add a bay leaf, and cook it on low 6 to 8 hours. We would be eating it right now! :(

Cuban Pork Roast I
Absolutely wonderful!!! Made exactly as written except for cooking an hour longer because we live at 7000 ft. Doing the paste in the small bowl of the food processor DID NOT WORK. It was such a mess that I had to start over, wasting the cumin seed, pepper, and garlic. The mortor and pestle worked much better. I seved it with Cuban Black Bean Salad, Grilled Pineapple, and Cafe Con Leche Custard for dessert. My husband said the whole meal was much better than anything you could get in a restaurant. Definetely a keeper!

Brown Sugar Meatloaf
I am giving this a 4 star--the average of my 3 and hubby's 5. While it wasn't the best meatloaf I've ever had, it certainly wasn't the worst. It was too sweet for my taste, although I did like the subtle ginger flavor. On the other hand, hubby said he loved it, something I have never heard him utter about meatloaf. But he is a "sweety," so all that sugar was right up his alley! It was easy to make except for forming the loaf and then trying to pick it up and put it in the pan. I served it with onion roasted potatoes and salad. Will make again because hubby likes it.
