Roasted Cumin Spiced Turkey Tenderloins w/ Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus

Today's Menu: Roasted Cumin Spiced Turkey Tenderloins w/ Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus






Happy Labor Day everyone! It's a hot, humid, with rain showers Labor Day around here today. Did some morning laundry and then went to see my Dad at the rehab center. He looks a lot better and is getting around a lot better, with a walker but he is walking. Came home and not a lot going on today. For dinner tonight I prepared Happy Labor Day everyone! It's a hot, humid, with rain showers Labor Day around here today. Did some morning laundry and then went to see my Dad at the rehab center. He looks a lot better and is getting around a lot better, with a walker but he is walking. Came home and not a lot going on today. For dinner tonight I prepared Roasted Cumin Spiced Turkey Tenderloins w/ Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus.







I used Jennie – O Extra Lean Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins. So for the Turkey Tenderloins I’ll need; 2 Tbls of Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1/2 tbsp Roasted Cumin, 1 tsp Garlic Powder, 1 tsp Chili Powder, 1 teaspoon Sea Salt, 1/2 teaspoon Hungarian Paprika, 2 teaspoons Dried Oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper. To prepare it preheat my oven to 350°. Combine all the ingredients; rub it all over the Turkey Tenderloins. Let stand 10 minutes. Heat the oil in a Cast Iron Skillet over medium-high heat. Add Turkey to pan; cook 4 minutes, browning on both sides. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165°, turning after 7 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Then get ready to enjoy one delicious Turkey Tenderloin! Fantastic combo of Spices, which made one incredible Crust on the Turkey with the inside being tender and moist! I’ve used the Cumin Spice Rub on different meats now and it works well with all of them, gives it a nice crust and great flavor.






For one side I prepared some Betty Crocker Creamy Buttery Mashed Potatoes. Comes in a microwavable container, just add water and heat. Then I also tried a new side dish, Kroger Private Selection Handpicked Asparagus Spears. Another microwave side, microwave on high for 5 minutes and they're ready! Very good side, good to have at hand in the freezer. Comes in a steamable microwave bag, seasoned it with Sea Salt, Pepper, and Kraft Reduced Fat Grated Parm Cheese. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Greek Frozen Yogurt.
