Ingredients:


For the Salad:

  • 1 lb flank steak (or sirloin or NY strip)

  • 6 cups mixed salad greens

  • 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes, halved

  • ½ cup blueberries 

  • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion

  • ½ cup crumbled feta or goat cheese 

  • ¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)


For the Steak Marinade:

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Salt and pepper, to taste


For the Dressing:

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup

  1. In a bowl or zip-top bag, combine marinade ingredients. Add steak, coat well, and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 8 hours in the fridge).

  3. Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, mustard, salt, and pepper.

  4. In a large bowl or on a platter, layer greens, tomatoes, blueberries, red onion, and cheese.

  5. Top with sliced steak and sprinkle with nuts, if using. Drizzle with dressing just before serving.
