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 the addition of zucchini! Great idea!
How nice of your husband to make these for you guys=) I’m glad you took down the spice and added zucchini. We’ve had a surplus around here and I can’t handle very spicy things. I might be trying this one out!
Ahhh, I’m in love with Black Bean burgers right now. I love the you added zucchini as well, it gives it a nice moist flavor! Very sweet of the DH to cook for ya, too!!
I never thought to add zucchini to black bean burgers, but agree that it would help them stay moist – I’ll be adding the spicy though! 😀
Yum!!! I love black bean burgers!
I’m always looking for new, tasty bean burger recipes! I bet the zucchini makes them stay super moist, which is great because many times bean burgers turn out dry…thanks for the recipe!
Mmm I love a good black bean burger! Sounds great!
