Harvest Steak Salad

Image
Hearty salads have the best of all worlds: ample protein, copious vegetables, and big flavor. And when they’re seasonally inspired? All the better… We’re loving this earthy autumn dish right now. Seared steak, fall vegetables and tangy mustard vinaigrette—together they make the perfect salad supper. Servings: 3 Prep Time: 30 minutes Cook Time: 90 minutes Ingredients: Salad: 3 cups cubed Butternut Squash 1 large Delicata Squash, seeds removed and sliced into rings (about 1.5-2 cups) 1 head Cauliflower, cut into florets 1 lb. Brussels Sprouts, halved 1 Tbsp. chopped Fresh Rosemary 4 cloves Garlic, grated 3 cups chopped Lacinato Kale 1/4 cup Primal Kitchen® Avocado Oil or Olive Oil Salt and Pepper 1 medium Apple, quartered and thinly sliced Steak: 1 lb. Tri-Tip Steak (but feel free to use another cut like sirloin, skirt, etc.) 1 Tbsp. Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil 1/2 Tbsp. Red Wine Vinegar 2 cloves Garlic, grated Salt and Pepper Dressing: 3 Tbsp. Olive Oil

If you know me, you know that I’m not much of a light snacker. I’ll rarely grab a bag of chips or a granola bar by itself to hold me over. I like to feel FULL after I’ve eaten, so what I really prefer are “mini meals” as opposed to true snacks.  A lot of the time, I will actually snack on small portion of leftovers from lunch or dinner in order to get a balanced ratio of macros. To me, there’s nothing worse than eating only to feel hungry just an hour or two later. Bottom line?   I like to eat, and I don’t do small portions, which is entirely opposite of what we’re conditioned to believe is the “best” way to lose weight. I mean, 100 calorie snacks? No, thank you! Diet culture promotes that the feelings of fullness and satiety are a “bad” thing – and in order to maintain a calorie deficit and see progress, we should learn to live with a constant feeling of hunger.
