Apricot Pork Tenderloin

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

I did not have any apricot preserves, but i did already have some homemade Plum Preserves (made by House of Webster, Inc. in Rogers, AR.) (given to me by my mother-in-law) in my pantry.

I also had some Hickory Farms Cranberry Mustard, a cranberry, apple & honey blend, in my frig, along with some ground mustard in my spice cabinet.

So, I followed this recipe, substituting the ingredients I already had at home, (which I think is resourceful and fun!) and this tenderloin was also delicious.! I made bacon wrapped green bean bundles and canned Pillsbury crescent rolls, both easy, to complete this yummy hot meal, epecially with my 14 year old son in mind!
