Beef Tenderloin

If you're looking for a meal high in protein, requires hardly any fancy ingredients, 300 calories per serving and tastes amazing? You will love this beef tenderloin recipe I made tonight. Its Whole Foods Market recipe, but I added more veggies to my version. 

Ingredients:

Red potatoes

3-4 carrots 

1/4 red onion

4 celery stalks 

1 T minced garlic 

2 T olive oil + extra for drizzling on veggies

2 T fresh rosemary 

1/2 T thyme 

2 lb beef tenderloin ( I used a Cabernet flavored one from Trader Joes) 

1/3 cup chicken broth

S&P 

Preheat oven to 400

Chop up veggies and place in baking dish

Drizzle with olive oil 

Sprinkle with S&P and 1 T rosemary 

On the stove brown beef tenderloin in olive oil, rosemary and S&P (about 10 minutes) 

Place in baking dish with veggies all around it

Pour chicken broth into pan you used to brown beef and mix with drippings. Pour over all the veggies. 

Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, until meat thermometer reads 130-140 degrees

Slice beef to serve. It should be slightly pink. 

And that's it! Great for when you're having friends and family over!
