Beef tenderloin tips are quickly stir-fried and served over mixed greens with balsamic-Dijon vinaigrette.
1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin tips
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, pushed through a press
1/2 packet sugar substitute
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1. Make Dijon dressing: Whisk together olive oil, mustard, vinegar, garlic, sugar substitute, basil and pepper in a medium bowl until creamy. Set aside.
2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Brown beef tenderloin tips in two batches 2 to 3 minutes each. Remove from skillet and season with salt and pepper.
3. Toss salad greens with 1/2 cup dressing in a large bowl. Arrange greens on a platter; top with beef and croutons. Serve with remaining dressing on the side.
