Herbed Pork and Apples image

Whenever I make this dish for friends and family, I'm reminded of the wonderful scent of the Maine orchards where we picked our own apples every fall until we moved to Missouri last year. The aroma of the pork and apples certainly takes the chill out of crisp autumn air. -Louise Keithley, Columbia, Missouri

I wasn't a big fan of this recipe. The pork was a little dry and the apples were not very flavorful. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.
