Pork Tenderloin with Pasta Primavera

This is a yummy spring meal...pork tenderloin and pasta primavera. I made it the other day and took half to a friend with a new baby.

It's pretty, fresh, and delicious.

Pork Tenderloin
recipe adapted from Chattanooga Jr. League cookbook.

Marinade

1/4 cup cooking sherry
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 clove minced garlic or 1 teaspoon of jarred garlic

Marinate 2 pork tenderloins in marinade for at least 2 hours (or longer if you can). Then cook in oven 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove from oven. Let rest and slice thinly.

Pasta Primavera
