2. While pork is standing, in another small bowl combine peaches, onion, mint, lime juice and salt.

Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Taste of Summer Cookbook. Peaches are in season and if you ever saw the photo for this recipe, you would want ot cook it too. I never like pork when I was growing up but as I started cooking and trying new pork recipes, I came to enjoy pork even more. Normally, when you think of pork for dinner you think of pork chops and applesauce. This dish puts a new spin on pork and fruit. Peaches don't have much taste to them but when they are paired with lime juice and mint they really wake up your taste buds and leave a nice aftertaste making your mouth feel refreshed. You can use pork chops in place of the pork tenderloin and the dinner will still be delicious. This dinner puts sweet and savory to a new level. I highly recommend this dish at your next barbeque because people will be talking about this dish to their family and friends and keep coming back for more.
