A boneless fresh leg of pork is a welcome break from usual holiday fare. A simple rub of dried rosemary, sage and other herbs lends flavor and a touch of elegance to this easy roast. Serve with Corn Bread, Sausage and Apple Stuffing, Kale with Garlic and Bacon, and a flourless chocolate cake for dessert.
