Preparation

Step 1

Preheat over to 475 degrees

Place tenderloin on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 475 degrees for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 425 degrees (do not remove tenderloin from oven); bake an additional 20 minutes or until thermometer registers 145 degree (medium-rare) to 160 degrees (medium) or until desired degree of doneness. Cover tenderloin with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Cut tenderloin across grain into very thin slices.

Spread each baguette slice with 1 teaspoon Herb-Garlic Cream; top each with 1 spinach leaf. Divide beef evenly among bread slices, sprinkle each with 1/2 tsp cheese.
