So I've finally decided to start cooking again (I could only handle sandwiches, waffles and pancakes for so long!) Last night I made Pork Tenderloin with Apple Stuffing...delicious!!
Here's the recipe:
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound)
2 T olive oil
2 small baking apples, cored and thinly sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 C fresh bread crumbs (2 large slices of stale bread)
1/2 tsp marjoram (next time I think I'll use sage)
1/2 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Wellesley apple butter
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.Split the tenderloin almost in half lengthwise. Place it between two sheets of waxed paper; pound it to about ½-inch thick.
Heat the butter or olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the apples and onion and sauté until lightly brown and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the bread crumbs and marjoram and toss with the apple-onion mixture until moistened through. Remove from heat.
Pepper and salt the inside of the tenderloin and spread the apple stuffing over the surface. Roll the tenderloin lengthwise and tie with kitchen string. Reheat the skillet over medium heat. Add oil and brown the pork on all sides. Place in a baking dish.
Baste the tenderloin with apple butter and bake for 45 minutes. Add apple butter 2 or 3 times over the course of baking. Remove from the oven; let stand 5-10 minutes before serving.
(Picture to come)
I served this with mashed sweet potatoes and mixed frozen veggies. T loved it, the kids ate the meat, but nothing else!

These look wonderful, and contain two of my D's fave ingredients - pork and apples! Lovely WCW entry! Mine is also up, but I can't seem to post on Shan's site anymore - I can't see her verification letters with the new format.
