My husband loves steak and he prepares this salad often in the summer when produce is plentiful. The success of this recipe depends on the quality and freshness of the ingredients. The meat can also be cooked on the stove top if you wish. We like to serve this with corn on the cob on the side!

Ingredients:

1 large lemon, juice of

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

salt

fresh cracked black pepper

10 ounces top sirloin steaks or 10 ounces flank steaks

4 cups mixed greens, rinsed and drained

4 radishes, thinly sliced

2 small zucchini, grilled

3 green onions, thinly sliced (seasonal onion such as walla walla or vidalia) or 1/2 cup sliced onion (seasonal onion such as walla walla or vidalia)

6 -8 cherry tomatoes, cut in half

1/2 cup fresh basil, sliced into ribbons

1 cucumber, thinly sliced

Directions:

3. Place mixed greens and other vegetables inlcuding the zucchini in salad bowl and add a little bit of the dressing and toss gently. Arrange the mixture on two salad plates.
