Doin' Some Cookin'... Roasted Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

Dinner date night worthy meal you can cook at home. This pork tenderloin is stuffed with bacon and spinach and roasted to perfection creating a juicy piece of meat before getting drizzled with a lemon parsley oil. A really classy meal that is worth lighting candles and dimming the lights. Hell, if you're not following Whole30 pop open a bottle of wine and serve with a side of Greek smashed potatoes.
