Roasted pork tenderloin is a delicious cook once, eat twice dinner.
I never bought pork tenderloin, because I always thought it was expensive. However, I took advantage of a buy one, get one free sale and now I’m in love with that cut of pork. Now I always stock up when I find that sale
Pork tenderloin is delicious when roasted. One package has two tenderloins, so I roast them both at the same time and we have enough leftovers for at least another meal. Scroll down for my favorite way to use the leftovers.

Can you believe I’ve never made anything with pork tenderloin? I sometimes have seen it for cheap but have never been sure how to make it….maybe because my mom never bought it? I don’t know, but I’m going to pin this recipe and when I see it next time I’ll buy it and make it this way!

My mom never bought it either. But a friend served it when she had us over for dinner and I was hooked.
