I love Filet Mignon, but not its price! While grocery shopping, I picked up a more affordable beef tenderloin tail. I brought it home and came up with this recipe. Now I cook it once a week, plus my husband loves taking the leftovers to work. —Linda Flynn Ellicott City, Maryland

I used Round Eye instead of Tenderloin, a few dollars per pound less. It worked fine with the butter-sauteed asparagus and mushrooms. Make sure that the asparagus is just a shade tender and still very crisp. The next time I make this, I'll use red pepper flakes and five spice with the beef saute step.
