I was at the store trying to decide what to do for dinner and found pork tenderloin on sale, so decided that would be the protein. I wasn't feeling overly ambitious, so decided to do a take on pork and applesauce. The fresh ginger and garlic really help balance with the sweetness of the applesauce to make amazing flavor and a great pan sauce. I always like to do the potatoes in the same roaster as my main dish so that the flavors blend and the potatoes stay moist. Give this one a try, it will be in heavy rotation around our house.

Sweet Apple pork roast with new potatoes

A sweet and savory glaze over a pork tenderloin, served with pan roasted new potatoes is great for any cool evening. The ginger and garlic are key to smooth this across the palate.
