This Asian-inspired salad makes a satisfying lunch. Cook the steak the night before, refrigerate, then simply toss with veggies and dressing when the lunch bell rings. —Marla Clark, Moriarty, New Mexico

Ingredients

1 beef top sirloin steak (1 pound)
1/2 cup sesame ginger vinaigrette, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1 package (10 ounces) hearts of romaine salad mix
4 radishes, thinly sliced
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup sliced English cucumber
1 cup fresh snow or sugar snap peas
1 cup grape tomatoes
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro

Directions

Brush steak with 2 tablespoons vinaigrette; sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
Divide salad mix among four plates. Top with radishes, onions, cucumber, peas, tomatoes and cilantro. Arrange sliced steak over salads; drizzle with remaining vinaigrette. Yield: 4 servings.
