Stuffed Pork Loin
Mix together 1 tub of chive and onion cream cheese with a handful of dried apricots that have been diced. (I also add about the same amount of golden raisins) If you buy the big pork loins at Costco, you can cut it into 3rds, each 3rd serves about 8 people. I like using the smaller pork tenderloins a little better. If using the big loin from costco, cut a slit down the middle of the loin and stuff the cream cheese mixture down in. If using the tenderloin, they are smaller so I cut it almost in half and then put the cream cheese mixture inside and tie it up with kitchen twine. Make a rub of about 2 Tbso olive oil, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp salt, and 1 clove of garlic minced. Mix together and rub all over the outside of the pork. Place it in a roasting pan or in a casserole dish and bake at 375 for about 1 1/2 hour for the costco loin size or about 45 minutes for the tenderloin. The internal temperature should be about 160 degrees.
