What's for Dinner Tonight?{Gluten and Dairy Free} Roast and Veggies!

Rub for Roast
1 tsp dried rosemary crumbled
1 tsp dry mustard or 1 TBS dijon mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1 TBS oil

Veggies
1/2 red onion sliced in chunks
1 bundle Asparagus
3 carrots peeled and cut in long slices
Gluten-free Tamari or Coconut Aminos
McCormick's seasoning
olive oil
salt

Heat oil in a pan. A high heat oil like grapeseed oil works well. When it is smoking add the roast. Sprinkle the roast with McCormick's seasoning, sear on all sides until it is a nice gorgeous brown all over.  Rub with the above rub and cook in the oven at 325F for 20 minutes per pound. So if it's a 2 pounder it should be in there for 40 minutes, etc.  In the middle of the roasting process take some GF Worcheshire sauce and drizzle it all over the top of the roast.

Take the juices from the roast and make a gravy just like you normally would with gluten-flour. Instead I use 2 TBS brown rice flour and 2 TBS tapioca (or corn) starch. Mix in a mug with a little water until it is a thick liquid. Pour into the roast juices in a saucepan over low heat. Keep stirring as it thickens. I like to add some salt, and McCormick's seasoning to that as well.

Meanwhile, prep the veggies for the oven. Hold the asparagus on both ends and bend it slightly. It should naturally break off leaving the hardest part on it's own. Discard those hard bits! Peel and cut carrots. Cut the onion. Combine all ingredients on a pan. Drizzle with Gluten-freeTamari (or Coconut Aminos!), olive oil, McCormick's seasoning and salt. Roll them around until they are covered all over. Bake at 400F for 16-18 minutes.

I like to serve this with mashed potatoes.  I use rice milk (or chicken broth) and olive oil instead of dairy products. Don't forget the salt and pepper! I am posting this at Allergy-free Wednesdays.
