I couldn't believe that this would be so delicious with so little work. I did use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. I used just a bit of cornstarch to thicken, but once I'd served it over angel hair pasta, I wish I hadn't. Delicious! Thanks for sharing. Made for PRMR tag.

I must admit, I was a little skeptical, but now I am a believer. I made exactly as written, except I did not cut my tenderloins in chunks, but left them whole. I did use the cornstarch to thicken the sauce. I just can't believe how much flavor comes out of such simple ingredients and instructions! This one is definitely a keeper.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have two boys Eddie 18 and Brandon 10. I have been with my hubby for 16 years. I work full time outside the home and my boys keep me busy at home. Eddie is a singer and base guitar player in a band and Brandon races go karts. We also have a Collie/Beagle mix named Sugar.
I love to cook and try out new recipes. My family likes it too but at times ask my to make just "normal" food, as I forget sometimes to make my own TNT recipes.
I cook a lot with with my crock pot as it makes life a lot easier for me. I am always on the look out for new crock pot recipes.
I'm not much of a baker as I don't like to measure things.
I collect cookbooks and recipes in general. I usually start with a recipe and tweak to my families liking.
My Rating System:
5 Stars = The whole family enjoyed the dish and it will be added to my TNT cookbook. Book #220911. These recipes will be made again and again.
4 Stars = Recipe was good, but needed some modifications or it was good but not something we would want on a regular basis. Also goes into my TNT-4 star recipe cookbook. Book #220912
3 Stars = It was edible, but won't be made again.
2 Stars = Needs some kind of major adjustments.
1 Stars = Inedible, didn't work, waste of ingredients.
