Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    2.5 - 3 lb. pork loin roast
    4 hot turkey italian sausage links
    1/3 Cup toasted, crushed walnuts
    1 shallot, diced
    1 Granny smith Apple, diced (I washed; didn't peel. It was fine)
    1 1/2 t. Parsley
    Olive Oil
    String to tie up roast
    Roasting Pan

Directions

Preheat oven to 400.

Remove skins from turkey sausage and brown in pan. Add shallot and apple, cook 3 more miutes.

Mix sausage mixture with parsley and walnuts.

If not already split, split your pork roast. I found that slightly butterflying each half gave me more room for stuffing.

Cut 4 pieces of string and lay across the roasting pan. Lay 1 half of the roast on top of the string.

Overfill the bottom half with the sausage mixture. Lay the top half of the pork roast on top, to make a sandwich.

Begin tieing the strings firmly, but not so tight that the filling squeezes out. If you see areas where the filling is seeping out, just add another tie. I have about ties by the time I'm done.

Heat a pan with olive oil and sear on all sides until golden brown.

Place in oven until a thermometer inserted to the inside of the roast reaches 170 degrees (about 50 minutes in my oven).
