STRAWBERRY STEAK SALAD WITH HOMEMADE BALSAMIC DRESSING
Ingredients
FOR THE SALAD:
- 2 sirloin steaks (12 oz total)
- olive or avocado oil for drizzling
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 4-6 oz looseleaf lettuce, washed and chopped
- 8-10 oz fresh strawberries (as many as you'd like!)
- 1 large avocado
- optional extra: a drizzle or two of balsamic glaze - YUM!
FOR THE DRESSING:
- 1/2 cup quality extra virgin olive oil
- 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar, extra to taste
- 2 TBSP red wine vinegar
- 2 TBSP dijon mustard
- 2 tsp honey
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- 1 tsp salt (I use sea salt)
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- I used ruffled looseleaf lettuce for my salad but your favorite green variety or combo will also work great! Spinach and Romaine would work fantastic together or even packaged spring mix!
- To prevent/delay avocado from browning, top sliced avocado with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and a drizzle of avocado or olive oil.
