Crisp Salad with Grilled Steak

Preheat grill to 350 degrees.

Fill a pot with water, place on the stove and bring to a boil. Once the water begins to boil add 4 large eggs and boil for 10 minutes.

While the eggs are boiling wash a head of romaine lettuce and chop into chunks, 2 large vine ripened tomatoes and slice into wedges, 1 cucumber slice it into circles and 3 carrots slice into circles.

Once eggs are done run them under cold water for 5 minutes (this will make them easier to peel). Peel the eggs and slice in half.

Take your lean steak (I like to use a fillet because it is nice and tender) season with crushed red peppers, garlic salt and pepper. Dribble some worcestershire sauce on the steak and rub (I use the Lea & Perrins brand). Place the steak on the grill and cook for 10 minutes, rotate every 2 minutes (this is for a medium rare steak of 2” thick, if you prefer it more done cook it longer).

Portions:

Male: 3 cups romaine lettuce with slices of 1 tomato, ½ the cucumber, 2 carrots, 2 halves of egg and sprinkle with 1 tbsp of blue cheese. Place 4oz of diced cooked steak on top and 2 tbsp of your favorite dressing.

Female: 1 and 1/2 cups romaine lettuce with slices of 1 tomato, ½ the cucumber, 1 carrot, 2 halves of egg and sprinkle with 1/2 tbsp of blue cheese. Place 2oz of diced cooked steak on top and 1 tbsp of your favorite dressing.

If steak is not your thing replace the steak with chicken or fish!

Lite but totally satisfying!
