South of France Pork Loin

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees, place a large 4 lb. center cut pork loin in a shallow roasting pan.  Roast for 20 minutes uncovered, remove from the oven and flip the pork over, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees and place the pork back in the oven for another 40 minutes, uncovered.  Next remove the pork from the oven and cut it in half. (Put half aside for another day)

Return the other half of the pork loin in the roast pan and top it with a Green Olive Tapenada (we like the Trader Joe's version with olives, tomatoes, red peppers, garlic and lemon juice).  Cover the roast and bake it for an additional 15 minutes.  Slice it thin and serve it with crusty bread, corn and feta cheese and cranberry salad for a very European dinner.
