Paleo Steak Salad with Creamy Garlic Vinaigrette

In the spirit of eating healthier, I decided to post this AWESOME recipe I found on Pinterest. I wasn't so sure if it was going to taste good, but it did and I'm stuffed (and not feeling guilty one bit).

If you look at the pictures, you'll notice some of the ingredients that I didn't use (didn't want to wait to boil eggs and figured only having red tomatoes was okay, lol).

I pulled this straight from the website and the link for the page I got it from is down below :)





Ingredients 

SALAD 
  • 1/2 lb sirloin steak, (grilled or pan-seared first, then sliced) 
  • 4 cups greens – we used Romaine lettuce 
  • 1/4 cup red cherry tomatoes 
  • 1/4 yellow cherry tomatoes 
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and sliced 
  • 1 avocado, pitted and sliced 
DRESSING 
  • 3 Tbsp of avocado oil or olive oil 
  • 2 Tbsp white wine vinegar 
  • 2 Tbsp paleo mayo 
  • 1 small to medium garlic clove, pressed 
  • Salt and pepper to taste 

Instructions 
  1. Pat dry and season steak with your favorite prepackaged seasoning, or sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Cook on well-oiled grill or in a cast iron pan (along with 1 Tbsp of oil) over medium-high heat about 5 minutes per side for medium rare steak. Remove from heat, place on plate and tent with aluminum foil for 10-15 minutes before slicing crosswise into thin strips. 
  2. Arrange salad ingredients on plates as desired, or place in large bowl and toss.
  3. Add dressing ingredients to a small bowl and whisk until combined. Pour over salad as desired. 
Tip I learned: If you don't have a garlic press, cut up a garlic clove finely, sprinkle with salt and press together with metal spoon or side of knife. 


Happy eating!
