HERBED RIB ROAST - WEIGHT WATCHERS
Even though I'm trying to eat healthier, including reducing my intake of red meats, my family really isn't all that open to such an option. So I figured the best compromise would be to at least find healthier recipes. I found this recipe on the Weight Watchers website, and I thought it would be a good choice for special occasion dinner parties. I didn't see the recipe on this site, so I thought I'd post it so others will have the recipe, too. It is worth 6 Points +

HORSERADISH-AND-HERB-CRUSTED BEEF RIB ROAST
The inspiration for this delicious roast comes from chef John Besh's father-in-law, Pat Berrigan, who serves it every Christmas with horseradish sauce on the side. Besh opts to smear the roast with a horseradish, garlic & herb butter, which bakes to form an irresistible crust. However, this meal need not be only for Christmas! Recipe by chef John Besh from The Big, Easy Christmas in F&W Magazine, December 2007 edition. MAKE AHEAD The horseradish-herb butter can be refrigerated overnight. Let the butter soften before using. Serve with recipe #60384 and make with 3 tablespoons of the fat from the roast, french string beans, a nice bread and a sustantial Cabernet Sauvignon; Cabernet's firm tannins help cut the richness of the red meat.
