Pan Seared Grass Fed Filet Mignon

One of our favorite recipes here on the farm is a pan seared grass fed filet mignon drizzled with a creamy mushroom sauce that can be whipped together in less than a half hour! That’s right, you can prepare a full meal with the filets and mushroom sauce along with the trimmings and salad.

I will not go into all the details of preparing your greens or salads, I have no doubt you already can do that; so, I’ll leave that to you to decide. I will say this, I find the premixed salad bag that you can find at your local grocery store to be the easiest way to toss a salad together, especially if you do not have the time to cut up a head of lettuce.

So let’s get going with the preparing of our grass fed Filet Mignon steaks!
