Easy Herbed Pork Tenderloin
Pork tenderloin is a naturally lean white meat whose versatility (and quick cooking time) we love. It’s also a great source of absorbable iron and B vitamins. Look for organic pork or pork raised without antibiotics for the cleanest cuts. Fresh herbs provide simple seasoning; opt for buying poultry blend herbs, which will provide a mix of rosemary and thyme in one package (instead of buying two separate packages). This recipe makes a double serving of pork; you’ll use half of it the next day to top a lunch salad. We suggest buying poultry blend herbs, which will provide a mix of rosemary and thyme in 1 package (instead of buying 2 separate packages). Be sure to reserve half of the pork for the next day's lunch. This recipe goes with: Winter Salad with Easy Herbed Pork Tenderloin
