Ingredients

For the Steak Salad

  • 1ribeye steak
  • salt & pepper to season steak
  • 5 cupsfresh baby spinach
  • 2eggs, hardboiled
  • 1 cupof fresh green beans, cut into1” pieces
  • 1 pintof cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cupof raw walnuts or pecans
  • 2 oz. of crumbled goat cheese

For the Balsamic Vinaigrette

  • 2汤匙of dijon mustard {gluten-free}
  • 1garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoonof dry basil
  • 3 tablespoonsof balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoonsof olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Season ribeye with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Place steak on the grill and cook each side for 5-6 minutes. If you’d like, you can pan-fry the steak instead of grilling it.
  4. Remove ribeye from grill and let sit. Do not cut it until you’re ready to assemble the salad.
  5. Add dijon mustard, garlic, dried basil, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to a bowl and whisk until combined. Alternatively, you can put everything in a mason jar and shake to combine. Set dressing aside.
  6. Bring a small pot of water to a boil.
  7. Add prepared green beans to the pot. Cook them for 2-3 minutes, then immediately throw them into an ice bath to shock them and stop the cooking process. This is called “blanching.”

Notes

  • To Store:If you anticipate leftovers, don’t add all dressing right away – it should be stored separately from salad. Keep leftovers refrigerated in airtight jars/containers for up to 3 days. Give dressing a good shake or whisk before using. Unless steak was left at room temperature for 2 hours or more, it should be safe to eat cold.
  • To Reheat:If you’d like to reheat the steak, wrap it in foil and place it in a 250°F oven until warmed through. To reheat green beans, warm them over a medium heat burner on the stove along with a little butter.
