Ingredients:

Serving

1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
2 tsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups fresh baby spinach, coarsely chopped
1 tbsp minced chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
1 tsp ground cumin
2 pork tenderloins (1 lb each)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 cups (8 oz) shredded mexican cheese blend
hot cooked rice and salsa

Directions:

Saute red pepper in oil in a large skillet until tender. Add garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Add the spinach, chipotle pepper and cumin; cook until spinach is wilted.
Make a lengthwise slit down center of each tenderloin to within 1/2 in. of bottom. Open tenderloins so they lie flat; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/4-in. thickness; remove plastic.
Sprinkle salt and pepper over pork; top with spinach mixture and cheese.
Close tenderloins; tie with kitchen string and secure ends with toothpicks. Place tenderloins in a shallow baking pan.
Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 20-25 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in pork reads 145°. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing. Discard string and toothpicks. Serve with rice and salsa. Yield: 6 servings.
