Ingredients
1 lb lean steak (such as sirloin or filet mignon)
2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
4 cups mixed lettuce
1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Optional: 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar for dressing
Instructions
Preheat grill or skillet to medium-high heat.
Season steak with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Grill steak for 4-5 minutes per side (medium-rare), then let rest 5 minutes.
Chop grilled steak into bite-sized pieces.
In a large bowl, combine lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro.
Add sliced steak to the bowl.
Drizzle with olive oil, lime juice, and salt/pepper. Toss gently.
Serve immediately or store in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
For best flavor, use room temperature steak and ripe avocados.
Add chickpeas or quinoa for extra protein and fiber.
Store leftovers in an airtight container with dressing on the side to keep greens crisp.
