Stuffed pork Tenderloin

Flavorful, hearty, juicy and tender... this dish is enough to make any one's mouth water.

Stuffed Pork, Smothered Green Beans & Sauteed Mushrooms


The Good: This recipe is absolutely delicious and the fresh herbs are to die for!
The Bad: There was so much stuffing left over when we followed the recipe.  Friday expect to see what we did with the extra filling.
The Ugly: Only 2 servings!  This is a lot of work for only 2 SERVINGS!

Suggestions before starting:
When making this we did not having any kitchen string so we used toothpicks instead.
This dish is extremely fragrant and will leave the smell in your clothes, purse and other items.  If this is something that bothers you, be sure to put those items in another room before starting.  Sage is a very fragrant spice when baked.
We made the green beans to go with the pork because I don't use bacon often and wanted to use it up.  Tomorrow expect to see the recipe for that and Friday watch for a recipe that uses the extra stuffing!

Pierogi Casserole

The delicious potato dumplings now in an easy casserole form.


The Good:  Don't worry about counting how many Pierogies you're allowed to have, just 1 can be as much as you'd like! This recipe is delicious, easy to make and freezes well.
The Bad:  Some of the measurements are ambiguous. 5 potatoes could be any amount of potato!  I would suggest using large ones.
The Ugly:  This recipe is not intended for those who are lactose intolerant.

Suggestions before starting:
When we made this dish we had too many noodles.  Because it is a casserole feel free to add or subtract any ingredient that doesn't seem like the proper amount to you.
The first time we made this recipe we split it up into 3 8x8 pans.  We had to add at least 3 potatoes to make it fit properly.
If it seems like you are making mashed potatoes... you are!  Feel free to make them how you like them best.
