• We have found that pork tenderloin is actually cheaper than chicken.

• Also, it is a very lean cut of meat, so is not an unhealthy thing to throw into your protein mix!

• Pork tenderloin is also generally easy to cook, which is another bonus!!

This is just one of our favorite ways to eat pork tenderloin. It is very flavorful, and like I mentioned, very easy!
