Pork Tenderloin Crostini with Sweet-and-Sour Cabbage- Crunchy crostini spread with cream cheese flavored with thyme, topped with slices of roasted pork tenderloin, and finished with a sweet and tangy red cabbage sauté with apples. It’s a scrumptious and impressive fall h’orduerve.

Pork, red cabbage, and apples are 3 ingredients that were meant for each other. There’s no third wheel in this equation. But the red cabbage is in my opinion the star of the show here. Oh how I love sweet and sour cabbage. I had to scold myself for eating it out of the pan with my fingers. I’ll be making this red cabbage-apple sauté as a side very soon.

Make Ahead Party Appetizer

This recipe for Pork Tenderloin Crostini is a little bit involved, but all parts can be made in advance and assembled last-minute for a fuss free party appetizer your guests won’t soon forget.

Garlic-Flavored Pork Tenderloin

The pork is briefly marinated in olive oil and garlic and then seared in a pan. It’s transfered to the oven to finish cooking. This step can be done a day in advance.

Toasted Baguette Slathered With Cream Cheese

Some mayonnaise is mixed in with the cream cheese. It makes it easier to spread and mellows the flavor of the cream cheese some. Fresh thyme is added for some flavor. Rosemary can be substituted for the thyme. The cream cheese mixture and the toasted baguette can be made a day in advance. Store separately.

Sweet and Sour Cabbage

The sweet and sour cabbage is flavored with both onion and apple and only takes about 15 minutes to cook. Can be made a day in advance and also makes a great side for pork chops.
