Mushroom & Bacon stuffed Pork Tenderloin

This dish never fails to disappoint; easy to prepare, feeds 6 and less than $10 to prepare! 
I always pick up pork tender loin when on sale for $3.99 lb.
Served over a bed of "spinach with a twist"


Ingredients:
1-1.5 lb pork tenderloin
4 slices of bacon, chopped
8 oz package of pre-sliced button mushrooms
salt & pepper to taste
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 T breadcrumbs
olive oil

Directions:
Cook bacon until crisp.  When able, chop into small pieces.
Meanwhile, add mushrooms to the pan and cook until soft; add the garlic and cook 1 min more.
Remove from heat and stir in breadcrumbs; set aside.
Butterfly the pork tenderloin and place in between 2 pieces of saran wrap
pound with flat side of meat mallet until even thickness (no more than 1/2 inch)
Spread mushroom mixture over the tenderloin and tightly wrap up
tie with cooking twine
bake in oven at 350 degrees for 45 mins or until meat thermometer measures 140 degrees.
