Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

 
 
 
 
WHAT YOU NEED:
 
A DUTCH OVEN OR SOMETHING WITH A LID
 
1 3-6 lbs  pork tenderloin sliced down the center (for stuffing it of course)
4-6 Garlic Cloves
I can of spinach (drained dry)
         (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 tsp Rosemary
1 tsp Chili Powder
1tsp of Sea Salt
1 tsp Pepper
1tsp of Garlic Powder
4-6 Uncooked Bacon Strips
SPOOL OF THREAD ( YES.....THREAD)
 
 
 
 
 
INSTRUCTIONS:
 
MIX ALL DRY SEASONINGS TOGETHER
 
 
 
I sliced the tenderloin down the middle and seasoned it with ALMOST all of the dry seasoning mix (SAVE SOME FOR LATER) ..... layer the whole garlic cloves down the center of the tenderloin.
 
 In a bowl mix the cream cheese with the spinach and use the remaining seasoning mix in the spinach mixture! Now spread that down the center, and over the garlic cloves.
 
Now close the tenderloin and wrap the tenderloin in the bacon strips....as tight as u can to semi close the loin! Follow that by typing your thread around at least 3-4 sections of the loin, from left to right! I used thick regulur thread as I was out of kitchen twine! You may use TWINE if available.
 
 
ON THE SIDE:
4-6 Sliced yukon Potaoes
Asparagus Stalks
Mushrooms
(PRETTY MUCH WHATEVER VEGGIE MEDLEY YOU LIKE)
 
 
Lay the veggie around the loin and cover and bake at 350 degress for 1.5 hours or till done!
 
 
ENJOY!
