Well not exactly pork chops and not exactly apple sauce.
I took a pork tenderloin and butterflied it putting a delicious mix of sweet apples and sugary pineapple with sage and rosemary and a little chevre (I know, I know I am obessesed with this cheese lately) down the middle along with salt and pepper.
I rolled it up to look like this.
I roasted it and let it rest.
I cut big huge slices of it and served it with riced potatoes and pan juices and a side relish made out of the left over apple, pineapple, and herbs with some red and yellow tomatoes. (squint and you can imagine this picture) We were hungry after walking all day and I didnt feel like making a pretty plate.

mmmm but what are riced potatoes?
Oh Dog, all I can do is sigh..............that again looks amazing.........
I want this.
Mmmm! That looks tasty! Especially with the cheese and the fruit inside, I bet that made the meat extra juicy!
Looks delish! I love the idea of rolling the pork with moist ingredients.

maryann: thanks - but I would trade you for some mussels
beth: it did smell great - it was hard not eating way too much -
Looks great - I totally know what riced potatoes are - the only way to have them is with heavy cream, roasted garlic, and real butter - hmmm - sounding good here.
Sooo - I have a whole pork loin in my freezer. I totally need to stuff it with something - only, I don't know what.
Choices, choices, choices...

It sounds great!
That sounds stupid good!!!
Apples and pork work well together. Try baked apples next time!
darius: I had tropical in mind when i was making this - pineapple is as far as I got...and the left over potatoes are ready for gnocchi
TBD: simple and tasty
BD: good dumb fun
marjie: that sounds good too -
Well you did not need any help from me...you did very well...I have actually made this before...but some how all I see is this image in my mind of a celebrates crouch...with your stuffed pork...go figure
Sorry my mind was evidently in the gutter...I meant 'Celebrities Crotch' with a pork'er
chef e: is it because of the way bogey is sitting?
Wow, that sounds really good. What a combination of flavors!
good pics--I like the orange background!
Yes, and as your rolling down the blog the pics of the tied up pork, oh, I said my mind was in the gutter...guess I need to get out of the office and kitchen for a while :)
emiline: it really did come out nice and juicy but I think the real clincher was the fruity, savory pan juices poured over the potatoes and meat
tavolini: I use that background and a blue one a lot to keep my pictures looking consistent - its the virgo in me...
chef e: dang you see subliminal persuasion everywhere...
I bet my hubby put you up to this...he is taking me out tonight!
Tavo's got the same virgo streak ;)
(Unfortunately, I'm usually the one snapping the pictures and my gemini inconsistencies shine through)
OMG! That looks wonderful! Now, I hope I am your neighbor and I could ask for a slice..LOL!
