1/3 cup reduced-calorie Italian dressing
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 bag (10 ounces) fresh spinach, washed and trimmed
3 (6-inch) pieces French bread, split lengthwise in half
4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
Cut pork into slices 1/4-inch thick. Place pork in plastic bag; add
dressing, turning to coat. Tie bag securely and marinate at least 15 minutes (no
longer than 1 1/2 hours). Remove pork from marinade. Brown pork in oil in
nonstick skillet; pour off drippings. Add tomatoes and spinach. Cover tightly
and cook over medium-high heat 2-3 minutes or until spinach is wilted. Pour off
liquid. Meanwhile remove soft centers from bread to form "boats". Spoon 1 cup
pork mixture into each boat. Sprinkle each with equal amount of cheese. Makes 6
servings.
