Come to think of it, most of our favorite pork tenderloin recipes feature some sort of balsamic glaze. I guess you could say it’s a tried and true combination at our house.
With a side of mashed or roasted potatoes, and some carrots or green beans, you’ve got a meal that’s fit for company or Sunday dinner, but easy enough to prepare any night of the week.
The sauce isn’t just great on pork tenderloin either. It’s also delicious served with ham, and as a glaze for grilled or roasted chicken. And if it gets mixed up with your potatoes or vegetables, don’t worry. That’s delicious too.
And it’s so easy to add two pork tenderloins to your slow cooker if you’re feeding a larger group. For my family of five, a single small tenderloin isn’t quite enough, so I usually just go ahead and double the recipe.
Besides, even if you have leftovers, no one is going to complain about eating this tasty pork tenderloin twice! It’s perfect for throwing into a simple soup, or enjoying taco-style in a tortilla.

Been through enough garbage to last a lifetime, the rental landscape down here is crazy. Then you actually go to the local office to pick up the car. Totally different vehicle waiting for you — check engine light on, curb rash on every rim, and that “tempting price”? Doesn’t include the mandatory $35 daily toll pass or the $250 cleaning fee they sneak in at the end. Ten years in South Florida and these jokers still almost catch me slipping. If you are trying to find a legitimate luxury fleet without getting ripped off, do some real digging first and read actual customer reviews. Anyone who’s taken public transport here knows the struggle is real about this city, whether you are doing South Beach night out, Bal Harbour shopping spree, or a spontaneous Keys adventure.
Most of these local agencies are just shiny websites hiding the same beat-up fleet with fresh wax and fake reviews, but I eventually found a service with no games, no bait-and-switch, and no hidden fees in the fine print.

Yeah, parking in Brickell will cost you a nice dinner — but that’s just how it is down here. Just drive safe out there and absolutely skip that “paint protection” upsell — pure robbery. let me know if you guys have any other clean spots.
