Roasted Pork Tenderloin

One of the best meals you can make your family is pork. It’s so versatile and goes with almost anything. You can dress it up with different sauces, ranch rubs, or even as yummy sloppy joes. 

Plus, when you catch it on sale, you can get a lot of meat for a super low price. 

Ingredients

Here’s what I used in my roasted pork loin. 

  • Pork tenderloin
  • New potatoes
  • Baby carrots
  • Frozen chopped onions
  • Rosemary 
  • Sage
  • Pepper
  • Olive oil

Recipe Replacements

The beauty of this recipe is how all of it fits in one casserole dish. If you make any ingredient swaps, just make sure it all still fits in the pan. Otherwise, you will have to use to pans. 

Here are some ingredient replacements you can make: 

  • Pork loin – you can use pork loin instead of tenderloin. Cut it down to size so it fits in the pan and you don’t have to cook it any longer. 
  • Russet potatoes or red potatoes – you can use these instead of new potatoes. The new potatoes fit in the pan without any chopping or prepping, so figure that into your prep time. 
  • Whole carrots – if you choose to use whole carrots you’ll have to peel and cut them so they are smaller. 

Other Vegetables

Here are some more veggies you can add to the casserole dish before you bake it. 

  • Fresh green beans
  • Cauliflower florets
  • Mushrooms
