Hectic Life + Mustard Pork Tenderloin
With life being a bit hectic lately, quick and easy, minimal cleanup dinners, like this roasted mustard pork tenderloin, have been all the rage in our house.
Let me give you a little taste (pardon the pun) of the craziness:
As some of you know, Cohl and I have been traveling back and forth to San Antonio every week. He has a job down there for 2 days out of the week so we normally go and stay with a friend for one, or even two, of those nights. I know… our friends are incredible!
Every time we stay at a friends house we bring our sweet, and not-so-chill, Tevah-dog with us. Just like most dogs, she normally likes her own home, her own bed, and a little activity throughout the day.
Well, yesterday I left her for about an hour while I headed over to get a quick run in at the gym.
Little did I know, there was a bottle of Hershey’s chocolate syrup sitting oh-so-temptingly on the coffee table.
Being the dog she is, she decided to break into the bottle and shake chocolate syrup all over our friend’s beige carpet.
Fortunately, she was smart enough to know that this magical syrup is poisonous for her and little of it was consumed.
Tevah | Maker of Mischief
I can only imagine the thoughts running through her head (we like to think Tevah has a scooby-doo voice…) “Gee, that bottle sure does smell tasty!”… *sniff* *sniff* and then pulls the bottle down from the coffee table… “Boy, that was easy to open up!”… continues to shake the syrup onto the floor… “Man, mom and dad are going to be so mad at me!”… drops everything in its’ place and retreats back to her bed in shame.

Delicious and low carb. I halved the recipe for 1 tenderloin. After searing the tenderloin in a cast iron skillet, I added the cooked carrots, apples, and onion right to the skillet with a little more olive oil and put the whole thing right into the oven for the remaining time.
