Steak Salad with Green Beans

Recently the man pretty much outdid himself: Mark made a steak salad.

And, inspired by my favorite salad at The Café, he used green beans, mushrooms, onions and blue cheese.

Pan Fried Steak Salad with Green Beans

Ingredients

• 16 oz flank steak
• 1 small onion, diced
• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 1 c green beans, snipped
• 8 oz blue cheese
• lettuce or greens of choice (arugula is amazing for this)
• vinaigrette dressing

• Heat a large pan over medium/high heat.
• Drop steak into pan and sear both sides.
• Season with salt and pepper. 
• Reduce heat and cook to desired done-ness. 
• Remove steak from heat and let rest on plate.
• Throw mushrooms, onions and green beans into the same pan and sauté over medium heat until cooked through.

• Cut steak into smaller pieces.
• Toss steak with vegetables. 

• Serve steak and veggies over greens and sprinkle with blue cheese and dressing*.

*I don’t use dressing on this salad. The cheese and steak juices make sort of a dressing by themselves! Also, Mark added red peppers to his salad and his turned out prettier.
