Ingredients
- 1 Eat Smart Sweet Kale Vegetable Salad Kit
- 2 8 oz. Petite Sirloin steaks
STEAK MARINADE
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons montreal marinade spice mix
DRESSING
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
- pepper, to taste
Instructions
- • Prepare marinade by whisking together the water, oil, red wine vinegar and spice mix. Place the steaks into a resealable zip-lock bag, and pour the marinade over the steaks. Seal the bag and refrigerate and marinate the steaks for at least 3 hours or up to 24 hours.
- • Preheat outdoor grill, or indoor grill pan to medium heat. Remove the steaks from the marinade and grill for about 5-6 minutes per side on medium heat for a medium cook. (Less time for more rare sear and more time for a well done sear.) Remove from heat and let steaks sit for about 5 minutes to let the juices settle into the meat. Slice the steaks into strips.
- • Prepare dressing by whisking together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, garlic and pepper.
- • Place the Eat Smart Salad Kit on a platter, including the dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds. Add the steak strips to the top of the salad mix, and add the dressing over the top of the steaks and vegetables. Serve right away.
