Easy Stuffed Pork Loin

Did you know I grew up on a hog farm?  Needless to say pork was the staple food in our household, and remains my favourite protein to this day. I have loads of great ways to put this versatile meat to use, but today I wanted to share one of my best- stuffed pork loin- yum! You can stuff loin in two ways- 1. the whole loin butterflied and stuffed, or  2. individual portions stuffed. I prefer individual portions although they seem like a bit more prep, when finished there is no cutting so you don’t make a mess of the delicious insides.

This method of stuffing is rather easy to do, and I promise you’ll impress your family or guests! Did you catch yesterdays post on ‘How To Use A Meat Mallet? If you didn’t you should check that post out first, to learn how to get a flat cut of meat, then you’re set to continue with this easy stuffed pork loin recipe.
