onion smothered pork loin topped with double cream gouda




The weather has finally cooled down some which makes it a little easier to cook in my little kitchen. A simple pork loin is jazzed up with sweet, caramel onions and creamy Gouda. I served up some roasted acorn squash topped with maple syrup, salt/pepper, and butter and steamed green beans. A really nice and easy fall meal.

Enjoy!

1 pork loin
salt and pepper
paprika
few fresh thyme sprigs

2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
tsp of sugar
