Try my favorite hummus recipe. Marlene Koch’s Healthy Hummus is easy, economical, and delicious! It doesn’t have the extra added fat found in many store bought versions. I admit, the tahini is expensive, but a jar lasts a long time. This recipe is pure goodness. Olive oil provides healthy, non-saturated fat; sesame seeds are rich in omega-3; garlic and lemon provide phyto-nutrients, and garbanzo beans (chickpeas) are rich in fiber and protein.

This entire dish is made on the stovetop with just 7 ingredients. Pork tenderloin is a lean cut of pork, low in saturated fat, but full of flavor with this sauce.
