In a small bowl combine the cream cheese, gouda, green onions, garlic and Dijon, mix well.

Spread the mixture over the center of the pork tenderloin and top with the spinach. Carefully roll the pork tenderloin tightly encasing the filling and use toothpicks or butchers twine to secure.

Mix the glaze ingredients and brush half of the glaze over the pork tenderloin.

Heat an oven safe skillet to medium heat, spray with cooking oil. Place the glazed pork tenderloin in the skillet and sear 4 minutes on each side (it should be golden brown). Remove from the heat and add the brussels spouts to each side of the pork tenderloin.

Bake 15 minutes, remove from the oven and brush the remaining glaze on the pork tenderloin. Toss the sprouts and add the pecans if using, put back in the oven for 10-15 more minutes until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. and the sprouts are tender.

Allow the pork to rest 10 minutes before slicing.
