I know this is not "birthing" or Christian family related but after just giving birth I'm in search of healthy and easy (translated: fast) to prepare meals. We had some leftover apple cranberry wine from our local orchard and while meandering around pinterest one evening this idea hit me! Apple Cranberry Pork Loin. It was so yummy. We were so eager to eat it since the whole house smelled AMAZING that I never go a photo of the completed product.
Ingredients:
1 pork loin
1 apple (we like granny smiths but any kind will do)
1/2c of Apple Cranberry wine
A handful of craisins
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Cut slices into your pork loin about halfway through. Slice your apple into 16 slices. Place your apple slices in the pork slits and any extras around the sides. Top with the handful of craisins, salt and pepper to taste. Pour the wine over the top. Cover and place in the oven at 350 degrees for appx 20mins per pound or until the internal temperature is 180 degrees.
I served this with broccoli and home made cranberry sauce. The cranberry sauce recipe I use is on the bag the cranberries come in but instead of water or orange juice I use apple juice.
Very tasty and low calorie. You leave the table full but not feeling like you "missed out" on anything.
