Beef Tenderloin Filets image

Simple. Elegant. Delicious. Great recipe for very special occasions. I serve with garlic mashed potatoes (or sometimes wild rice), green beans with cherry tomatoes (recipe on this site), green salad with sweet poppy seed dressing (my published recipe on this site), and homemade sweet dinner rolls (recipe on this site). Enjoy!
