This was a new recipe, my wife suggested stuffing a tenderloin and thought spinach dip was a good thing to stuff with, so this was the result. It might be intimidating to try, but a couple of attempts at butterflying a loin and you will be able to show off your skills to guests or girlfriends.

I was very impressed with how this turned out. I probably put a bit too much cream cheese in it, but was still very, very good. I used bacon bits instead of raw bacon because I always have some good ones on hand. I could have wrapped the whole thing in bacon for an added touch, though it would have added some time to the cooking.

That's it for tonight. I'm sick and feeling lazy.

Cheers and Best Wishes!
