INSTRUCTIONS:
1.) Preheat oven to 425 degrees. If you want a darker color on the edges, seer the pork tenderloin on both sides for about 8-10 minutes. I used a lidded skillet because the bacon kind of pops a bit. That's just for safety reasons. I used tongs to flip the tenderloin a few times while cooking.
2.) Once you are happy with the color, transfer the tenderloin into a baking dish (use non-stick spray), and bake for about 25 minutes or more. At this point, you could also add chopped carrots and cabbage into your baking dish to get the full flavor of everything. I also covered the dish in foil to prevent more popping/spattering.
3.) Once pork is cooked thoroughly, remove from oven, and carefully transfer to a cutting board with the tongs. I then sliced the pork as thin as I could and got read to construct my Nourishment Bowl.
4.) In a wide bowl or really any container you wish, layer: cabbage
But wait, there's more!
