To Serve

Beef Tenderloin

  • Remove the clear wrap from the butters and either slice them into individual portions or leave them whole on a plate.
  • Allow butters to come to room temperature while you prepare the steaks.
  • Decide if you would like to grill or pan sear your meat.
  • Allow the steaks to temper for 5 minutes before you are ready to cook them.
  • Season the steaks on both sides with the salt and five-pepper mix and lightly drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Over medium-high heat, when hot, grill or pan sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side while they brown and are cooked to your desired temperature before resting. (For pan searing, a cast iron skillet works best).
  • Once the steaks have reached your desired temperature, it’s very important to let them rest for 5-7 minutes.
  • After the meat rests, slice them against the grain.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Mashed Potatoes & Other Vegetables

  • In a medium-sized pot bring 1/2 cup milk (not included) to a simmer and then add in the defrosted potatoes.
  • Reduce the heat down to medium-low and whisk vigorously.
  • Once the potatoes are heated through, melt 1/4 cup butter (not included). Feel free to add additional butter or milk to adjust to your desired consistency.
  • Add the cooked mushrooms, and carrots to the pan.
  • Season with salt & pepper, and toss the vegetables over high-heat until hot and glazed.
  • Have fun, serve, and enjoy!

Vanilla Berry Cake

  • Allow cake to come to room temperature before decorating with the chocolate garnish.
  • Slice, serve and enjoy!
