Grilled Herbed Pork Tenderloin

From Cooking Light
Serves 8

1/4 C fresh oregano leaves
1/4 C fresh sage leaves
1/4 C fresh orange juice
1/4 C honey
1 T coarsely ground black pepper
2 T grated lemon rind
2 T grapeseed oil
1/4 t salt
6 garlic cloves, peeled
2 (1-pound) pork tenderloins, trimmed
1/4 t salt

Combine first 9 ingredients in blender or food processor; process until almost smooth. Pour mixture into a large heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag. Add pork to bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 2 hours, turning bag occasionally.

Prepare grill.

Remove pork from marinade. Discard marinade. Sprinkle pork with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place pork on grill rack coated with cooking spray; cover and grill 25 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160F (slightly pink), turning pork after 15 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

**Notes from Em**
My grill has been less than reliable lately, so I did this in the oven. Cook on 375 for about 30 minutes.
I didn't bother going to the effort or expense of getting fresh herbs, so I used about 1T of each dried. I'd probably do just a little bit less next time. I also added some extra salt.

Whole Wheat Sourdough Pancakes

My first adventure into the wonderful world of sourdough.

1/2 C sourdough starter
1/2 C wheat flour
1/2 C milk
1 egg, beaten
1 T oil
1 T sugar
1/2 t salt
1/4 t baking soda

The night before you want the pancakes, combine the starter, wheat flour, and milk. Mix with a wooden spoon until just combined, cover with a towel, and leave on the counter for 8-12 hours. The longer you leave it, the more 'sour' your pancakes will be.

In a separate bowl mix together the egg, oil, sugar, and salt. Add the baking soda and mix well. Immediately add the egg mixture to your sourdough sponge. Mix gently until just combined, and then let it rest for 5 minutes.

While the batter is resting, heat your pan to medium. Pour about 1/4 C of batter onto the pan. When the edges start to dry out, and you have bubbles coming to the top, flip the pancake. Cook another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
