This pork is one of the fastest, easiest recipes to make for a group gathering. It's a hit with a crowd and makes the best sandwiches the following day. You can't ask for anything better for either a weekend or a weeknight meal.
Mustard Pork Loin
- 2 1 lb pork tenderloins
- 2 apples
- 2 parsnips
- 1 fennel bulb
- salt and pepper
- fresh rosemary
- ¼ cup stone ground or whole grain mustard
Directions
- Generously coat pork with salt, pepper, fresh rosemary and the green sprigs from the fennel bulbs. Place in refrigerator at least 4 hours or up to overnight to let flavors permeate.
