light until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the apple and prunes and cook for 2 - 3 minutes.
Add the apple juice, sugar substitute, the 1/2 tsp. of rosemary and thyme.
Cover and cook over a medium heat until the juice is evaporated, about 5
minutes.
Stir in the stuffing crumbs and season to taste with the salt and pepper.
Preheat oven to 350.
Cut a lengthwise slit, about 2" deep, in the tenderloin.
Mix the other garlic clove, 1/4 tsp. rosemary and 1/4 tsp. thyme together.
Rub all over the outside of the tenderloin.
Spoon the fruit stuffing inside the slit in the tenderloin.
Place in baking pan and bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes, until the meat is

Let stand for 5 - 10 minutes before slicing.
