Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

Ingredients 

• 2 green onions, chopped

• 3 tablespoons shredded Cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons frozen chopped spinach
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped white mushrooms
• 1/4 teaspoon chopped garlic
• 1 pinch dried parsley
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 pork tenderloin, butterflied and pounded flat
• 1 cup dry bread crumbs

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
2. Mix green onions, bacon, Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, spinach, mushrooms, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
3. Spread onto one side of pounded tenderloin.
4. Roll tenderloin around the filling in a jelly-roll fashion.
5. Coat rolled tenderloin with bread crumbs; place on the prepared baking sheet.
