This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover pork roast. The apricot glaze was a nice touch and the vegetables were a great addition.

I found that the pork roast was a little dry. I think I would need to adjust the cooking time or add more liquid to the recipe.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less apricot preserves or adding some tart fruit, like cranberries, to balance out the sweetness.
