Ingredients:
1.5 tsp dried rosemary
1.5 tsp dried thyme
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1.5 lbs pork tenderloin
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 sweet potatoes, medium peeled & sliced
1 tsp cinnamon
Dash of sea salt & black pepper (to taste)
Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring water to a boil & add sweet potatoes. Meanwhile, smash the rosemary, thyme, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper then combine into a thick paste. Cut small slits into the pork tenderloin then rub 2/3 of the paste into the slits. Combine leftover paste with olive oil and rub over the rest of the tenderloin. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes in a glass baking dish. Remove and cover with foil to let it rest for 10 minutes. When potatoes are cooked and soft, place them in a large bowl and mash with a fork. Add cinnamon, salt and pepper to taste. Serve the pork with the sweet potato mash and enjoy.
