Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 (10-ounce) package chopped spinach, thawed and well-drained
  • 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

  • Instructions


    Preheat oven to 325º. In a skillet, sauté mushrooms and onions in olive oil until tender. Stir in spinach, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, garlic powder, sage, rib seasoning, and tenderizer. If the pork roast is tied, separate the roast; if not, cut into halves. Spread stuffing mixture over one loin. Top with remaining loin and tie the two loins together with heavy cooking string.
    Place roast in a shallow ungreased baking pan. Bake, uncovered, for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until juices run clear or a meat thermometer reads 160-170º. Let stand about 15 minutes before slicing.
