    I made this last night for my family. Everyone liked the pork. It certainly was easy to make. I used 5 apples and one large onion, and it was tasty. I would make this again. - 1/13/09

    Absolutely delish! I've never had apples & onions with pork loin, and it was a real treat, and so simple and quick to prepare. My youngest son didn't eat the pork but he scarfed down the apples! Thanks for sharing, it's a winner. - 9/27/07
