Steak and Salad
Hubby and I started doing meal planning about a month ago. I haven’t posted our weekly meal plans, but maybe I’ll start doing that… I like adding tried and true recipes that are easy and healthy. This is one of those recipes.
We eat salad almost every night with dinner. This is our favorite. One night we had some steak in the freezer that I wanted to use up so I grilled it and served it with salad. Then I started taking bites of them together and this meal was created.
Super Steak Salad (by ME!) – 8 WW pts – makes 3 servings
1 bag of spring mixed greens
1 granny smith apple – chopped
3 Tbsp of sliced almonds
1/8 cup dried cranberries
1 oz Goat Cheese
6 Tbsp Trader Joe’s Italian Dressing
12 oz lean steak
Mix all ingredients except steak in a box and mix (I like to put in a Tupperware bowl, put lid on and shake until all mixed up).
Grill steak to your preference. Top salad with steak and serve!

I love pomegranate so much ♥

Isn’t it awesome. It makes me so sad when my store doesn’t have any…
After looking over a handful of the blog articles on your website,
I seriously like your technique of writing a blog. I saved
it to my bookmark website list and will be checking back in the near future.
Please visit my website too and let me know what you think.
I’ve never had a cheeseball before! This one looks like the perfect entry – gorgeous!
All those pomegranate seeds look like little jewels on the cheese ball! And to think cheese balls have sorta become unfashionable in recent years.

I agree, and there’s no reason for it! Especially with how pretty this cheeseball is.
this sounds delicious, and i love that it’s studded with those gems of pomegranate seeds 🙂

Pom seeds are my favorite. I’m so sad that I can’t find pomegranates around me anymore. The containers of just the seeds are not the same…
