2 lb beef tenderloin the star of your dish, ensuring a tender and juicy centerpiece

3 cloves garlic, minced infuses the spinach with aromatic richness
2 cups fresh baby spinach provides a vibrant color and a nutrient boost
1 cup crumbled feta cheese adds creamy tanginess that beautifully complements the beef
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts brings a delightful crunch and nutty flavor to the filling

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar drizzle this tangy sweetness on top for a gourmet finish

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's hot and ready for the tenderloin.
In a skillet, add olive oil and heat it over medium. Sauté the minced garlic until it’s fragrant, then toss in the spinach and cook until just wilted.
Once the spinach has cooled slightly, remove it from the heat and stir in the crumbled feta and toasted pine nuts.
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice a pocket into the tenderloin.
Generously spoon the spinach mixture into the pocket.
Sprinkle salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary over the exterior of the tenderloin. Place it on a roasting pan and roast until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C).
Allow the beef to rest for at least ten minutes. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar just before serving.

Serve with a side of roasted vegetables for a festive presentation.
