 Hi, Friends!
Welcome to my second blog post of December! December is the month of magic that is filled with joy, cheers, and love. Christmas songs are playing all day on the radio. Ladies all over are getting together to bake traditional Christmas cookies. Some are making Christmas shopping plans, and some are planning their perfect Christmas dinners. We all know about some of the Christmas traditions; some of us eat turkey, some ham, some prime rib, and some roast lamb on Christmas Eve. This Christmas I want to try something new and " Proscuitto Wrapped Pork Loin with Kale and Italian Sausage Stuffing" is something that fits right in! Also, this can be the best leftovers for the next day as it is good to make Italian Pork Loin sandwiches with! Simply layer the pork on your favorite bread, add salad leaves, pesto, onion, and some goat cheese. This recipe is great to serve for Christmas Dinner as it serves up to 8 people. I served it with roasted potatoes, and you can add cooked collard greens or a green salad on the side. Or you may served this pork as part of sandwiches such as they do in Italy. These gorgeous pieces provide the lovely layers tucked inside with kale, Parmesan Reggiano, and Italian sausage. I find that this recipe is most flavorful and a gorgeous pork loin that would be wonderful to serve for Christmas dinner. The salty prosciutto gives a nice flavor to the lean meat, the fat from Italian sausage keeps the meat moist, and infuses it with the robust flavor of fresh herbs. This post was done in partnership with Whole Foods Market Chicago, who sponsored me with the ingredients and helped to make this post happen. For this time of year, there are many main holidays coming up. Whole Foods Market would like to celebrate in the cheers, joy, love and support of all the holiday traditions. Since Christmas revolves around food, Whole Foods Market has a special gift for you! Of course, it involves food to give thanks for all of you that have been the greatest supporters, and supporting you all to eat healthily.

AuthorHi, I am Natty! And Thank you for stopping by!! I am a foodie girl who has a passion for cooking, exercise and photography. There are so many favorite recipes from my family and friends I have tried throughout my journey that balances out and makes a healthy meal. I would like to take you on a journey to a different pantry around the world to share my favorite stories and recipes. My hope is that they inspire and benefit you. "You love someone, you open yourself up to suffering, that's the sad truth. Maybe they'll break your heart, maybe you'll break their heart and never be able to look at yourself in the same way. Those are the risks. That's the burden.Like wings, they have weight, we feel that weight on our backs, but they are a burden that lifts us. Burdens which allow us" Bones  Don't wait for the perfect moment,take the moment and make it perfect. - Zoey Sayward- Archives
