Rob claims to be a terrible cook and he did catch a wooden spoon on fire tonight while making pasta, but I think he’s holding out on me. He makes delicious breakfasts and is really good at combining leftovers to create a tasty meal that I never would have thought of. Grilling is his specialty, though. Even a simple skirt steak seasoned with salt and pepper tastes amazing. We got a few meals out of the skirt steak we grilled this weekend, including this spinach salad. I’m not a big salad person unless they incorporate fruit. This one was really easy to make and also pretty healthy. The flavors work so well together and I love the different textures that you get from the steak, feta, berries and almonds. It will definitely be a go-to summer meal.
Spinach, Steak and Blackberry Salad
Ingredients
- grilled skirt steak, cut into slices
- 4 cups spinach
- 1 cup blackberries
- 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup slivered almonds
- 1 avocado, diced
- 2 Tbsp. balsamic vinaigrette, or dressing of choice
Place spinach, blackberries, feta cheese, almonds and avocado in a large bowl. Drizzle with preferred dressing, then toss until all ingredients are evenly incorporated and coasted with the dressing. Divide between two plates, then top with steak slices. Enjoy!
This looks incredible! I was just thinking to myself yesterday that I need to make more salads. The problem is I need to make salads I’ll actually eat. This one is definitely worth a try!
