Pork tenderloin with a delightful savory-sweet brown sugar and balsamic glaze.
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 0.5 cups water
- 0.25 cups balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions

1
Whisk brown sugar, water, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, and cornstarch together in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until thickens, 4 to 6 minutes. Set aside off heat.

2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking sheet.

3
Combine garlic, sage, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl; rub on pork tenderloins.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tenderloins; brown evenly, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet; brush with balsamic glaze.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip tenderloins; brush with glaze. Continue cooking until slightly pink in the center, about 20 minutes more, or until desired doneness. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

These mushrooms with pork hash stuffing are great as an appetizer or even as a side dish. The amount of mushrooms you have on hand can dictate the amount of stuffing that goes with them.
Gingerbread Granola Bars
This is a twist on Playgroup Granola Bars from this site. I didn't have the stuff to make those (and we love those), so I did my own thing. They turned out great! We normally wrap them individually and freeze them, a great quick snack or breakfast on-the-go!
