grilled steak salad with cilantro-lime dressing
Today was a crazy day. I felt like I barely had time to breathe, let alone plan any meals. Breakfast was easy; I love eggs so almost every day I do over medium eggs with spinach and Aidell's chicken-apple sausage. Lunch was leftovers I pulled out of the fridge. But then suddenly it was dinner time and I had kids under my feet whining about being hungry. And I was a little hangry myself. But I had forgotten to marinate the steak for dinner. Oops. So I grabbed the meat and left it out to hit room temp while the grill heated up. I put S&P on both sides of the London Broil then threw it on the grill. 8 minutes each side and it was perfection. I like mine medium to medium-well. While it was cooking I sliced up a couple of avocados and tossed some mixed greens.
For the dressing I knew I wanted something more than oil and vinegar for this so I grabbed the last of my homemade mayo (super easy. Let me know if you want the recipe!) and mixed it with the zest and juice of one lime, a handful of minced cilantro, and a little minced garlic. Just stirred it all up and was good to go! It was a little thick so it would probably have been even better with a little almond milk mixed it to thin it out.
Yummy dinner and ready in about 25 minutes. Gotta love that!
