1/4 cup cherry preserves, large pieces snipped
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 1 - pound natural pork tenderloin
10 slices lower sodium, less fat bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil

Place, bacon ends down, on rack in the prepared roasting pan. Roast 20 minutes. Brush top of wrapped tenderloin with preserves mixture.
