Ingredients

  • 8 oz thinly sliced ribeye steak
  • 2 cups mixed baby greens
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup chopped cucumber
  • 1/2 cup edamame, shelled and cooked

  1. Season the steak with salt and pepper. In a large pan or grill, cook the steak to your desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium rare. Set aside to rest.
