Juicy Flavorful Pork Tenderloin #Pork #30minutes

Nothing says I love you like a juicy piece of pork... right or is that steak? I don't remember but for me I love Pork tenderloin done right. Tenderloin should be perfect and by perfect I mean "tender" hence the name and juicy. This recipe is so simple and Doug-licious and its only a 30 minutes cook. This goes perfect with rice and beans. and if you have a pressure cooker you can do everything all at the same time. Hope you enjoy this one out of my book!








Ingredients:
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Ginger powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
Salt
1 1/4 pounds pork tenderloin
1 tablespoon olive oil




Preheat the oven to 450 degrees
In a bowl mix all the dry ingredients.  Stir mixture with a spoon until all the ingredients are well combined. Sprinkle the rub over the tenderloin with a dry hand, then rub the pork with the seasoning over all sides of the meat.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and heat.  Put tenderloin in the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, searing each side using tongs to turn the meat. Transfer meat to a roasting pan and bake for 20 minutes. Slice and serve.








Super Tasty Eggplant Lasagna #healthy #Low-Carb #Cheesy

So looking to cut out a few carbs from your diet? Here is a great recipe for Lasagna that is Pasta Free. Replacing pasta with eggplant is a great way to have you"cake and eat it too". Using a very familiar recipe to a standard lasagna minus Ricotta Cheese I have a great solution that is great for you and tasty.







Ingreidents:
2 full size eggplants (Sliced)
3 lbs Ground beef
2 - 16oz cans of tomato sauce
2oz fresh spinach
2 cloves garlic Minced
4 cups of Mozzarella cheese
2 Roma tomatoes Diced
1 whole onion diced
2 tablespoons minced ginger (Dried Spice)
Salt
Black Pepper



First things first, you need to slice your eggplant the long way as thin as is comfortable with you. Place sliced eggplant in a mixing bowl sprinkling salt on every slice cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. This process is called "Purging". Next you need to get your onions, garlic, and ground beef together in a mixing bowl mixing well also with your salt, pepper and Dried ginger. Pre-heat your oven to 325. In a large sauce pan over med-high heat add a splash of Olive oil, when Oil starts to gently smoke add your meat mixture. Stir around for about 10 minutes. add in your Tomato sauce and turn the heat down to a simmer. Let that cook for 10-15 minutes.
Layering: This is the fun part. In a large baking pan you are going to add a thin layer of the meat sauce, Eggplant, spinach then Sauce. Repeat this Layering until you end with room for your last layer which is Cheese. I like to add a thick layer of cheese.

Leaving your dish uncovered, put it in the middle rack of the oven for 40 minutes, This allows time for the Eggplant to break down in the middle and absorb the Sauce and all that great flavor you have.
Remove from the oven let cool for about 5 minutes and serve. This I swear to you is a great dish made just for you to cut back on those carbs and add a good amount of Veggies to your diet, Plus It's Doug-Licious!!!
