    A marinade of maple syrup and smokey spices gives a sweet, rich flavor to the pork tenderloin. The apple cider vinegar also adds a bit of a tangy taste to this dish. While pork tenderloin would be great to enjoy during the cooler months, it would also be a delicious and warming meal any time of the year.

    Maple Chili Pork Tenderloin

    One of the more difficult transitions for people to make when eating Paleo is to cut out refined sugar and use natural sweeteners instead. However, people are often left wondering which "natural sweeteners" to add back in and how much.

    The answer is different for everyone because everyone's age, activity level, stage of life, and tolerance for sugar are different. Honey and maple syrup are two popular Paleo sweeteners.

    However, some find it easier to abstain from or limit even natural sugars. Luckily, most recipes are flexible, and you can adjust the amount of sweetener you use to fit your taste and preference.

    Serve this pork tenderloin with roasted carrots or sauteed spinach and onions. Use leftover pork to toss in a salad the next day!
