Following up on my last blog post, I’ve submitted a recipe to the Maple Leaf contest and some of you have started voting on it.  But I thought I would put a printer-friendly recipe up for those of you interested in making it.

This recipe is gluten-free, and while it looks like it contains a few steps, once all the ingredients are ready to go, it comes together fairly quickly … and you get to resurrect your boy-scout skillz when you truss the pork!  Pork these days is a fairly lean, mild flavoured meat, and makes a good alternative (for those who eat meat) from chicken.

The quinoa used in the stuffing does double duty as a “starch” side dish, so all you need to pull of a complete meal is pair with a veggie or salad — you could even go crazy with a spinach/peach/red onion salad if you found some nice peaches!

Please remember that Maple Leaf is continuing to run this contest for the next month or so, and you can vote daily for the recipes you “like”.  Should I be fortunate enough to win, I’ll be donating the winnings to the Mustard Seed food bank here in Victoria.

You can find the contest at the Maple Leaf Prime page on Facebook. Thanks for your support!
