Pork
Stuffed Beef Tenderloin
My husband and I both retired recently - me from the local bank and he from a paper mill. We've always loved to fish and we also enjoy skiing...so we like hearty meals. This is certainly that, and it's delicious!
Ingredients:
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1/2 cup diced celery
- 1 can (4 ounces) chopped mushrooms, drained
- 1/4 cup butter, cubed
- 2 cups soft bread crumbs (about 3 slices)
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil or 1 teaspoon fresh basil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 beef tenderloin roast (3 pounds)
- 4 slices bacon
Directions:
- In a large skillet, saute the onion, celery and mushrooms in butter until vegetables are tender.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, salt, pepper, basil and parsley. Add onion mixture and mix well.
- Make a lengthwise cut three-fourths of the way through the tenderloin. Lightly place stuffing in the pocket; close with toothpicks. Place bacon strips diagonally across the top, covering the picks and pocket.
- Place meat, bacon side up, in a shallow roasting pan. Insert thermometer into meat, not stuffing. Bake, uncovered, at 350° until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, the thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove from oven; let stand for 15 minutes. Remove toothpicks.

Air Fryer
When you want an appetizer, try these air fryer bell pepper poppers. Not everyone can take the heat of jalapeño peppers–no worries, though! Use brightly colored mini bell peppers, fill them with Boursin herb-flavored Gournay cheese, and add just a little piece of bacon to the top. Air fry in a single layer, cooking in batches, depending on the size of the air fryer.
