Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Make a lengthwise slit about 3/4 of the way through the tenderloin. Open meat like a book so that it lies flat; flatten it to 1/4 inch thickness, pounding it if necessary; set aside.
In a small skillet, saute onion in the butter until tender; add soft bread crumbs; saute until crumbs are golden brown. Remove from the heat.
Stir in the parsley, sage, rosemary, salt, pepper and enough egg to moisten the ingredients.
Spread the stuffing on a long side of the tenderloin to within 1/4 inch of the edges. Close the tenderloin; place the bacon on top; tie closed with kitchen string. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
Bake, uncovered, 50-60 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°.
Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
2 servings.
* To make soft bread crumbs, tear bread into pieces; place in a food processor or blender; cover; pulse until crumbs form. One slice of bread makes 1/2 to 3/4 cup soft bread crumbs.
