Black & Bleu Salad

I used to go to Quizno's every once and awhile to have their Black & Bleu Salad, thinking I was being good and that I was making good choices with my diet. Yeah. Well, Quizno's has finally published their nutritional data. Was I eating healthy? Not so much. So, I've made my own version:

Black & Bleu Salad

4 oz lean sirloin, trimmed of all visible fat
1-2 T bleu cheese
Salad greens
tomatoes
thinly sliced onion
1-2 T balsamic vinaigrette
You could also add some craisins, which are great on this

Cook steak to desired doneness ~ Slice against the grain into bitesize pieces. Place on the bed of lettuce, tomatoes, onions ~ add vinaigrette and bleu cheese to personal taste.

Greek Yogurt w/ Agave Nectar & Cashews

I made Greek Yogurt today ~ not that it's hard, you just dump plain yogurt in a strainer lined with cheesecloth (or paper towels) for a few hours until the yogurt gets nice and thick. The only mistake I made was buying "All Natural" instead of "Fat Free" (I just wasn't paying attention, I guess). I might still go to the store and buy Fat Free also and then mix the two. Anyway, I start P2 tomorrow, which means I can have my favorite dessert ~ Greek Yogurt w/ Agave Nectar & Cashews. I got this recipe from Kalyn's blog and I absolutely love it!

Roni's Quick Sweet & Tangy Salmon

Bring the water and salt to a boil. Add oats. Reduce heat and cook for 10-20 minutes. Remove from heat and cover; let sit for a few minutes. Makes 4 servings.
