Enough on the bacon, I know.
Pork tenderloin is one of my favorite cuts of meat to make for the family. Besides the fact that it is super easy to prepare, 1 small pork tenderloin is the perfect size for 3 of us. The little ones won't touch it of course. So when I buy the packs that have two tenderloins in it, I pop one in the freezer - bonus.
This recipe was adapted from a whole pork loin recipe I found at About.com.
I promise you, this tastes better than it looks. This is a perfect candidate for "Ugly Duckling" Link party in the future.
