Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

I came up with this stuffed pork tenderloin with spinach and mushrooms one day when looking for something new to do with pork. This dish is very easy to make and assemble and is so pretty to serve to family and guests. I like to serve this with a nice salad and roasted potatoes.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven until pork is slightly pink in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
