New Year’s Eve Dinner Party Menu
Here is the full menu for a successful New Year’s Eve Dinner Party. You can see all the recipes in this post.

- Quick & Easy Prosciutto Recipe

Beef Tenderloin Crostini – New Year’s Eve Food
Begin by marinating your Beef Tenderloin for approx. 1-2 hours. You can use a prepared marinate or our recommended recipe (see the full recipe below).
Next, sear the outside of the beef for approx. 3 minutes on each side. Move to a regular grill and cook until the internal temperature is 135 degrees for medium rare beef.
Finally, slice beef into bite-size pieces, approx. 1/8-1/4 inches.
While preparing your beef, you should bake the bread according to package directions. Then, slice it into thin, bite-size pieces.
You can add butter to the slices and toast as an option.
Beef Tenderloin Crostini Dip Recipe
For the dip, you can use regular horseradish, horseradish creme, or mix together these 3 easy ingredients – Sour Creme, Horseradish & Worcestershire Sauce.
Details are on the recipe below.
How To Serve Delicious Appetizers
I arranged the beef tenderloin on a platter with fresh dill garnish, placing the bread and topping on the side.
You can add the beef and topping to the toasted bread slices or allow your guest to build their own crostini.
The Beef Tenderloin Crostini is a great main course appetizer for any party, but especially for your Appetizer’s New Year’s Eve Party!
The marinate gives the beef a sweet, tangy flavor.
