Summer’s here!

That can mean only one thing . . . it’s time for Summer Steak Salad!

It’s light, it’s filling and it’s healthy. What more could a beef eater ask for?

This salad is known as Shaking Beef Salad in Vietnam and it’s quite the refreshing treat!

Serve with brown rice or simply on its own. And have fun personalizing your own variations.

It’s summer, so let’s play!

Are you on Spring Break this week? Next week? Last week? Never?

Yeah, growing up stinks sometimes. I miss the days of just lollygagging around for a week and rejuvenating for, well, school.

It was rough.

Now, that I have two rugrats, THEY are on Spring Break. And you know what that means for me?

More work.

Entertaining. Dazzling them with my wit and knowledge. Playing games . . . 24/7.

To rejuvenate myself this Spring Break, I plan to make this yummy, springy Spring Break Steak Salad.

It propels my mind to sunny days ahead — and the day when school will be back in session.

There is a debate raging out there over whether steak is just as good (or better) straight out of the fridge.

Which side do you fall on?

Now, usually these are leftovers we’re talking about — last night’s grilled filet mignon, strip steak cut up and served as a steak salad, London Broil no longer hot out of the oven.

Are you the “get it while it’s hot” kind or do you prefer the sealed in taste of a refrigerated masterpiece?

Read the debate here and let me know where you stand. Do you LOVE cold steak or is it best hot off the grill (after at least 5 minutes resting, of course)?

Tell me your thoughts!
