PORK TENDERLOIN
I love this pork tenderloin recipe. Pork tenderloin usually comes wrapped in pairs. This way, if you have a larger family, you can use both loins at the same time with this recipe. If you have a small family with 2 to 3 people, you will want to freeze one loin and cook the other one.
I find that we often believe that we will eat everything that we are cooking and when we make a large amount ,it is often left in the refrigerator because we're eating other things and we don't care to eat the same thing twice in the same week!
This is an easy recipe even for those who are growing their cooking skills. It is a great entree for a group of friends coming to dinner. I will sometime sauté mushroom in white wine and add them to the sauce.
