Cumin Spiced Pork Tenderloin w/ Mashed Potatoes and Sweet Corn

Dinner Tonight: Cumin Spiced Pork Tenderloin Roast w/ Mashed Potatoes and Sweet Corn

Had a light dusting of snow this morning, in the low teens with a wind chill today. Went to a Special Valentine's Day Party at Noon today! My cousin's son had a party at school and she also has twins where she had to be at their school also. So me and Mom filled in for her at the school part, and it was a hoot! It was fun watching them give their Valentine Cards to each other. Found out my little man has himself  girl friend, he's already got good taste in women! Too much fun, really enjoyed it! For dinner tonight I prepared a Cumin Spiced Pork Tenderloin Roast w/ Mashed Potatoes and Sweet Corn.

I've been using the Cumin Spice Rub for a while now. I had come across the recipe a while back on-line, and use it all the time now. I purchased the Pork Tenderloin Boneless Roast from Kroger. To prepare it I’ll need; 1 Pork Tenderloin Roast, 1 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 oven to 400°. Combined all the ingredients; rub it all over the Pork. Let stand 20 minutes. To Roast it I used a mall Broiler Pan with a Wire Rack in it. Sprayed the Rack with Pam Cooking Spray and put the Pork on it. I baked it for about 1 hour       until my  thermometer registered 150° (slightly pink) Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Then got ready to enjoy one delicious Pork Tenderloin Roast! Fantastic combo of Spices, which made one incredible Crust on the Pork with the inside being so tender and moist! This is my favorite Pork recipe, bar none!

For one side I prepared Bob Evan’s Mashed Potatoes, just microwave and serve. Then I made some Brown Mushroom Gravy. I used a packet of Pioneer Brown Gravy Mix and added some sliced Baby Bella Mushrooms to it and heated. I also heated up a can of Green Giant Sweet White and Yellow Whole Kernel Corn. For dessert later a Jello Sugarless Dark Chocolate Mousse.
