Submitted by Zaney1

"This is out of TOH Healthy Cooking magazine. It is from Tahnia Fox. This cooks up very quickly and is a nice, different way to have pork. I didn't have apple juice so I used peach juice and it worked just fine."

Thanks for posting this recipe. I made it last night for dinner. Both Hubby and I were very impressed with the amount of flavor the sauce has with so few ingredients. Will definitely be making again.
