The holidays are always such a busy time of year… but it’s important to make time to be with those with hold near and dear. Holiday meals give us the opportunity to chance to slow down, reconnect with our loved ones, and create lasting memories. I think there’s something so special about gathering around the table, sharing stories and laughs, and enjoying a delicious meal together.
I make a point to entertain as often as possible. But when it comes to deciding what to serve at my gatherings, I like a meal that tastes great but won’t keep me in the kitchen all day. That’s why I look to Hatfield Marinated Pork to give my guests great taste without a ton of effort.
It’s true, the delicious pork that you enjoy on a busy weeknight is also ideal for a holiday gathering. The format makes it perfect for a small intimate dinner or to feed a large group of folks. Open one pack, two, three, four or more! You can easily feed as many people as you’d like without spending a bunch of extra time in the kitchen.
One of my favorite dishes that is super easy and sure please even the pickiest eaters is my Pork Pot Pie. It’s the ultimate classic comfort food that’s both flavorful and easy to make. With Hatfield Marinated Pork Tenderloin as the star ingredient, this pot pie is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser.
You can make a single pot pie or multiples with very little effort. So what are you waiting for? Grab a few ingredients then gather your friends and family, set the table, and enjoy great taste with ease.
The recipe below will serve six. But you can easily double or triple the recipe and have enough for a big group of friends and family!
