People talking
The secret behind The South Beach Diet is the perfect blend of palette-pleasing foods and healthy ingredients. This was served to me in one Miami's, South Beach restaurants and it was just wonderful! It was really delightful and is easy to prepare! It is fabulous served cold - I brought some home and had it cold the next day and am hard pressed to tell you which way is the better.

The flavors were a little powerful - but with lots of potential. Although I love garlic, I would not recommend increasing the amount. The flavors of rosemary and orange were really nice with the beef. Next time, I'll try just using the rub mix (with half the salt) and let it marinate... and skip the shallots part of this recipe.Reply

Very good! My husband really loved this one. I added an extra clove of garlic because we're garlic lovers. The orange zest really added a lot! Mushrooms would also be really good in this recipe. It doesn't take long in the oven to cook - just a few minutes. Additionally, a half pound of beef tenderloin each was enough for my husband and I and the calories are more like 450 a serving. We will be making this again.1Reply
