Burgundy Pork Tenderloin

01/19/12 | Main Dish, Pork

As this week nears the end, I can’t believe we are over half-way through January already. The days seem to come and go in moments, even though they sometimes seem to last forever. But, maybe the fast-pace of my life these days is because I am actually doing things instead of sitting in my apartment for endless hours 🙂 It’s been a good couple of weeks and the coming weeks only promise to get better. I’m looking forward to the changes and the adventures that lie ahead of me.
What better way to celebrate than to smother my dinner in a wine sauce?? And I’m not joking when I say it’s a wine sauce. It’s pretty potent in flavor, so if you aren’t into a strong wine flavor in your food, you may want to scale back the amount just a teensy bit. I really love pork tenderloin (it is the other white mean, ya know?), and I’m always looking for new ways to cook it. This recipe has been in my binder for quite some time and I finally got around to making it….and it is a winner! It could be served as a fancy dinner for friends simply because of the sauce. Yep, that good. So, give it a try…I’ll even be your dinner guest if you want 😉

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
