Christmas Dinner

       Every cook in the family is assigned with a dish to make for Christmas. I was not assigned with anything because I chose what I am going to cook. I am going to make a maple glazed stuffed roast pork. I found the recipe in a Kraft magazine about three years ago; I have wanted to cook that recipe since then. I told my family during Thanksgiving about the recipe, and they cannot wait to try it. Next Christmas, I have decided to cook a very traditional Christmas goose! Below, I have given you the recipe, but remember this recipe is from a Kraft magazine! 

Maple Glazed Stuffed Roast Pork 


What you need:
  • 2 Tbsp. Butter
  • 1 apple, chopped
  • 1-1/2 cups hot water
  • 1 pkg. (6 oz.) STOVE TOP Stuffing Mix for chicken
  • 1 pork loin (2 lb.), butterflied
  • 2 Tbsp. maple-flavored or pancake syrup
  • 2 Tbsp. GREY POUPON Heart Spicy Brown Mustard
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary 
Make it:
  • HEAT oven to 350ºF
  • MELT butter in large skillet on medium heat. Add apples; cook and stir 3 min. or until crisp-tender. Add water and stuffing mix; cover. Let stand 5 min.; mix lightly. 
  • SPOON stuffing mixture onto cut-side of meat to within 1/2 inch of edge. Roll up, jelly-roll fashion, starting at one short end. Place seam-side down, in roasting pan sprayed with cooking spray.
  • BAKE 1 hour. Mix syrup, mustard and rosemary; spread over meat. Bake 20 min. or until meat is done (160°F). Let stand 15 min. before slicing to serve.

New Changes


       As you can see I have changed the title and url of my blog. I did that because I need new changes in my life, but don't worry, I will still be blogging about healthy foods and ways here and there. I know I have not been posting weekly or monthly because I have been busy with school, and a lot of times it just slips my mind. I am apologizing for that and I hope you will love my future posts! 

P.S. I will be posting about what I am making for Christmas and after New Years I will be posting what I did for Christmas and New Years. The holiday post will come with pictures!
