Pork Tenderloin With Gingered Cranberry (Or Cherry) Sauce (5 Pt image

A quick scan of my recipe collection reveals my fondness for fruit sauces with poultry or pork. So when I found this one in a Weight Watchers cookbook, I was instantly taken with it. Though I will not try this until later this week, the presentation here includes my modifications. I have made this with dried cherries and it was superb, almost better than the original. If using cherries, reduce the amount of ginger a small amount. (5 points)

This dish was a disappointment. The pork was dry and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

The pork was a bit overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. I would try it again with a different cooking method.

This recipe was just okay. The pork was a bit tough and the sauce was not very flavorful. I would not make it again.
