ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin
- 1⁄4 1/4 cup Dijon mustard or 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves or 1/4 teaspoon ground rosemary
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 8 granny smith apples
- 1⁄2 cup maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
directions
- Preheat oven to 425. Place pork on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray.
- Combine mustard, 2 tablespoons syrup, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Pour half of it over pork and spread with pastry brush, being mindful not to place the brush back into the mustard mixture (in order to avoid contaminating it in case you want extra sauce for dipping).
- Bake for 30-40 minute or until internal temperature reaches 160 (meat should be slightly pink).
- Meanwhile, slice and peel apples.
- Heat a large skillet over med-high heat. Saute apples (no oil or spray needed) for about 5 minute or until lightly browned.
- Reduce heat to low. Combine syrup, cornstarch, sugar, and cinnamon and add to apples. Simmer 10 minute or until apples are tender, stirring occasionally.
- Excellent served with a side of potatoes and a salad! Enjoy!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Hi!
I am a stay-at-home mom of three young children. Since a friend recently told me about the negative affects of artificial ingredients in many of our prepared foods, I decided to go retro and start making lots of our food from scratch.
I am a wedding cake decorator out of my home. That may end soon as I end up eating too many of the leftovers! My favorite cookbook used to be Better Homes and Gardens, but now it is now Recipezaar! I love to sing, play guitar, and do paint by numbers ( and cuddle on the couch with my kids). I am a Christian and Jesus is my main passion, although I will never shove anything down your throat, so don't worry about that. :)
My pet peeves are: When I'm interrupted while speaking, and movies or music that is too loud. I guess I'm sound sensitive, I just realized that both of my pet peeves have to do with listening. I also really don't like to be tail-gated.
What I love to do for fun is to get together with friends who are silly and love to laugh and play board games or cards. I also really enjoy moderate exercise and going out to eat. I guess I'd BETTER enjoy excercise if I'm going to eat out!
