Steak Sally!



My apologies, I forgot to take a photo so this is someone elses steak sally!

This is a healthy and hearty salad that even a dude would like :)

Here is what you need:
- Romaine Lettuce
- CHerry tomatoes
- Chick Peas (drained)
- Bundle of Asparagus
- Steak (round cut or flank steak cut)
- Blue cheese or gorgonzola (yes, they ARE different - gorg is more pungeant)
- Homemade croutons (see Menu a la Marguerite's blog on crouts!)

Directions
Steak:

- coat steak in a little oliv oil, balsamic vineger, worchester (sp)sauce and s&p
- grill about 5 minutes on each side and let rest another 5 minutes to juices distribute
Asparagus:
- coat in olive oil, chil pepper, paprika, s&p
- place on a peice of foil and place foil on top of grill
- grill about 5 mins, then toss and grill another few mins until browned
Dressing:
Whisk together 2 tbls balsamic vineger, 1/4 cup oliv olive oil, tsp honey, tsp pepper and a pinch of kosher salt.

Next, assemble lettuce tomatoes (I like to salt mine with kosher salt), chick peas, croutons and blue cheese crumbles. Then drizzle dressing over. Slice steak and place on top warm so the juices mix in with the dressing.

ENJOY!
