It doesn’t take long to make, so it is perfect for a work night.

This looks SO good! I always look for easy meals to make during the week-looks like I've found one. What size pork tenderloin did you use? Also, did you remove the silver skin that often appears on the outside of the tenderloin?
Your dishes always look so appetizing. I need to think sauce more often.
Wow, I'm hungry!
Pork..garlic..Dijon..Le tout est parfait!
You definitely get the award for the best looking meals. Now if we could all share them with you….sigh…..
Omg…I am hungry now…very hungry!Did not even have breakfast yet!
You know how to bring pork tenderloin to new heights; looks wonderful; saving this one.Rita
Pork Tenderloin is a favourite here, usually with prunes and apples. I like the sound of this – a good way to use spinach too.
BEAUTIFUL!!!
You may call this a simple dinner, but it's hard to imagine one more delicious. Love the sauce spooned over the pork and spinach.
We love pork tenderloin. Love the simplicity of this dish, but those potatoes… I'm such a spud lover. I've never made Parisian potatoes, and so I'm pinning this to remind me to try them. I never made a spud I didn't love. This is my kind of meal!
Your pork looks so succulent…and perfect! I want your whole meal!!! Ann, you put together such beautiful dinners~
I love the color of your pork!
