PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLES AND SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F, then coat the inside of a 9"x9" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, combine salt, cinnamon, cardamom & pepper.
• In a large bowl, place the sweet potato slices & sprinkle them with just 1/2 teaspoon of the spice mixture & just 1 1/2 teaspoons of the oil, then toss to coat.
• Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer in the prepared baking pan, then bake uncovered for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the pork tenderloin in half, then rub the remaining oil over the pork, before coating it with the remaining spice mixture.
• Place the coated pork halves over the sweet potato slices & bake for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut each apple into 8 wedges, & when the pork has baked for 15 minutes, turn the pork over & arrange the apples around the meat.
• Bake another 15 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 145 degrees F ~ That's my reading, but if you're a traditionalist, you'll want it to read 160 degrees F!
