South Beach Diet - Pepper Crusted Tenderloin of Beef image

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.

This recipe was easy to follow and the results were impressive. The beef was tender and juicy, and the pepper crust added a nice depth of flavor. I served it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes, and it was a hit with the whole family.

This recipe was a fail. The beef was tough and the pepper crust was burnt. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The beef was a bit dry, but the pepper crust was tasty. I think I would try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

The pepper crusted tenderloin was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. The beef was cooked well and the flavors were good.
