STRAWBERRY-BLUE CHEESE STEAK SALAD RECIPE
This is great steak salad recipe. Can't seem to get enough of that tangy dressing!
Prep/Total Time : 30 mins.
Servings : 4
INGREDIENTS
· 1 beef top sirloin steak (3/4 inch thick and 1 pound)
· 1/2 teaspoon salt
· 1/4 teaspoon pepper
· 2 teaspoons olive oil
· 2 tablespoons lime juice
SALAD
· 1 bunch romaine, torn (about 10 cups)
· 2 cups fresh strawberries, halved
· 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
· 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
· 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
· Reduced-fat balsamic vinaigrette
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Season steak with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add steak; cook 5-7 minutes on each side until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove from pan; let stand 5 minutes. Cut steak into bite-size strips; toss with lime juice.
2. On a platter, combine romaine, strawberries and onion; top with steak. Sprinkle with cheese and walnuts. Serve with vinaigrette.
Editor's Note
· To toast nuts, bake in a shallow pan in a 350° oven for 5-10 minutes or cook in a skillet over low heat until lightly browned, stirring occasionally.

· If you’re looking to trim calories, leave off the walnuts and blue cheese; they’re adding almost 40 calories per serving.
