Grilled Steak With Blue Cheese

I’m back with another quick and easy weeknight recipe to help you put dinner on the table in a flash. Above you can see the fantastic dinner that I served my guys before they headed out the door for football practice – Grilled Steak Salad With Blue Cheese.

Now you might be thinking that I am crazy to serve a salad to a bunch of hungry guys, but this is a actually a very hearty salad. I see it as the best of both worlds. I get my guys to eat a big helping of something green. Plus, they get a big ol’ hearty steak! It’s a win/win! What ties it together is the sweetness from the Wish-Bone Light® Honey Dijon Dressing. It pairs perfectly with the crunchy lettuce and tangy blue cheese.

The guys love the taste and it works perfectly with my weight loss plan – lots of protein and low in carbs. The best part…the actual cooking only takes 10 minutes. My husband did the grilling so the only thing I had to do was pop the steak in a bag with the Wish-Bone dressing to let it marinate and then rip open a bag of Fresh Express salad. I added a few onions, some tomatoes and blue cheese and then just waited for that steak to come off the grill. Too bad I can’t do dinner like this every night!

Don’t forget we have a sale running in the current ad that will make this a super economical option. If you grab your Fresh Express and Wish-Bone dressing now you can get it at a fantastic price.
