Steak and Spinach Spicy Salad (Keto)

Stumbled upon this combo this week because it was what I had in the fridge.  Actually I way over cooked three steaks and Ryan wouldn’t eat them.  I hate wasting food so I found another way – this became my lunch all week and I looked forward to it each day. You can also do it with perfectly good medium rare steak left overs…. my steak was well done eye of round that was pre-seasoned on the outside with a peppercorn mix from the store.  I upped the anty with red pepper infused olive oil and sriracha mayo… Me likes it hot.

Ok, you can tone it down but I loved it.

I even made my own dressing (it was really simplified because who has time…)

If you like spicy follow my recipe otherwise tone it down a bit.  I ended up eating a whole box of baby spinach this week. Yay for iron and calcium intake not to mention folic acid.

Spinach Salad:

As much baby spinach that will fill you up for lunch

half a well done steak cut in small chunks

Cucumber cut in quarters

half an avocado scooped out and chunked

sriracha mayonnaise to taste

top with coconut smiles (I got these at Costco and they are way addictive)

 

Dressing:

1 tablespoon red pepper infused olive oil

a splash of apple cider vinegar
