Thought Provoking Thursday
I smiled this morning when I read Bargains to Bounty's post listing almost two dozen salad recipes... great minds think alike!
This picture shares our family's Monday night dinner; steak salad and yummy bread. Quick, easy, delicious, seasonal, a crowd pleaser and inexpensive. What more could a wife/mother ask for?
We've eaten this meal several times already, and it may well become a 'grillin' season' staple for our family! Lettuce and salad additives (like tomatoes and cucumbers) are plentiful, freshly picked and at their lowest prices of the year! The steak that I have been purchasing, sells for about $2.59/pound, and we are able to feed our family of three with less than one pound. Our size steaks usually sell for about $2! The best parts of these thin little steaks are that they are very lean, are versatile to prepare (marinade or seasonings), are grilled quickly and taste delicious in a salad!
Have YOU considered instituting any inexpensive & seasonal 'Summer staples' into YOUR meal planning?
Begin by boiling your favorite pasta, we enjoy Piccolini.
