Shopping list for a special dinner

I had a new idea for you. Here's a shopping list for a special meal you can make this weekend. I'll give you instructions no later than Friday morning - I promise! We shared this pork loin stuffed with prosciutto, stilton and dried cherries with some wonderful friends last Friday. All the kids ate it because you can pick out the stuffing if you don't like it and the meat is tender and delicious on it's own. I served it with roasted butternut squash and a salad with granny smith apples and pecans.

Shopping list
- Pork loin - not tenderloin, you need the bigger one to stuff. It is not an expensive cut of meat and this preparation makes it seem really special!
- Dried Cherries - 1 Tbs
- Stilton or gorgonzola cheese - Trader Joe's has a stilton that's reasonably priced. Make sure the gorgonzola is creamy not crumbly so it will melt.
- Prosciutto - 3 slices 1/4" thick or the packaged of already diced from Trader Joe's
- Plain Bread Crumbs
- Butternut Squash - get one with a small bulb and large neck. It has more meat.
- Spring Mix
- 2 Granny Smith Apples
- Candied Pecans - see Thanksgiving post re: Greene's Fine Foods!
