Butterfly the 1-1.5 lb pork tenderloin (or use 2 cooked chicken breasts, approximately 1 lb total).
Grill or broil tenderloin 6-8 inches from heat source for 5-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for pork or 165°F (74°C) for chicken.
During the last 2 minutes of cooking, brush the tenderloin (or chicken breasts) with the remaining apricot mixture.
Remove the tenderloin (or chicken) from heat and let cool slightly on a cutting board.
In a large bowl, combine 5 oz baby spinach, 1/2 cup canned apricot halves (drained), 1/4 cup dried cranberries, 4 oz crumbled blue cheese (or feta), 1/4 cup pecans (or walnuts), and 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion.
Divide the salad mixture among 4 plates.

Arrange the sliced meat on top of the salad.
Drizzle with the reserved apricot dressing just before serving.
