So, I’ve rolled many pork roasts in the past, but I’ve never tried making my own mix of stuffing. Most have breadcrumbs and sweet stuff in the stuffing. I wanted something low in carbs.
Here, I present a rolled pork with mushrooms, onions, and provolone cheese. It was delicious, but the cheese melted a bit more than I had hoped. I need to work on stuffing to keep it more inside the roll.
Serve it with a salad to keep the carbs low and fill your need for a flavorful meal. Cheers.
Rolled Pork Roast – Onions/Mushrooms
This is the first of several Rolled Pork recipes I will share. This one is focuses on Mushrooms and Onions. Provolone cheese adds to the stickiness.

Calories: 392kcal
Equipment
- Butcher Twine
Ingredients
- 3 pound pork loin
- 2 cups mushrooms chopped
- 2 cups onions chopped
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 9 slices provolone
Instructions
- Preheat Oven to 375°.
- Set the loin on the cutting board. Using a sharp, long knife, cut the loin like you are unrolling a cinnamon roll. The meat should be about 1/2 inch thick. Using a smooth mallet, pound the pork to about 1/4 inch thick. The result will be about 16" by 16" or so.
- In a large bowl, mix the chopped mushrooms and chopped onions with the spices.
- Spread the slices of provolone atop the meat. Layer the mushroom-onion mixture over the cheese.
- Roll the log, and tie using butcher twine.
- Bake in pre-heated oven for 30-40 minutes until thermometer in the thickets part reads 145°.
- Remove from oven, cover with foil and let rest for 15 minutes.
That sounds delicious, Christian! I’ll be trying this recipe soon.
Our best to you and your dear mom.
