Ingredients

1 lb pork tenderloin
1 bottle (12 oz) wheat beer
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 bag (5.5 oz) mixed greens
1 can (11 oz) whole kernel corn, drained
1 cup whole dates pitted, halved
1/2 cup roasted salted almonds
2 avocados, pitted, peeled and sliced
1 medium poblano chile, roasted, seeded, chopped

Steps:

Place pork tenderloin in glass bowl; add 1 cup of the beer. Cover; refrigerate 1 hour. Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix remaining 1/2 cup beer and the Wheat Beer Vinaigrette ingredients. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Heat oven to 350°F. Place pork in shallow pan. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until pork has slight blush of pink in center and meat thermometer inserted in center reads 160°F. Cool; shred pork using two forks.
In large serving bowl, mix greens, corn, dates and almonds. Pour about 1/2 cup of the vinaigrette over salad; toss to coat. Top with shredded pork, avocado slices and poblano chile. Serve salad with remaining vinaigrette.
