For carnivores...

Every once in a while, I want steak. Amzie had meetings late all week, so I had to cook for myself. My P90X came with an eating guide, which I am not following exactly, but I am using some of the recipes.

One of the recipies is steak with pear and peppercorn sauce. I served it - to myself - with couscous and asparagus. Asparagus is my favorite vegetable, hands down. It's so easy to just put in a dish, drizze on olive oil, add salt and pepper, grate some good paramesean cheese over it, bake and you're good to go. If anyone is interested in the sauce recipe, let me know.


Of course steaks usually come in packages of more than one, so I went ahead and cooked both pieces when I made my dinner and saved one piece for the next day's lunch.

This is just the sirloin over arugula, cherry tomatoes, and feta cheese. I make a very easy balsamic vinegarette: 1tbsp olive oil, 1tbsp balsamic, 1/2 tsp spicy brown mustard, 1/4 tsp soy sauce, pepper to taste, and some garlic powder to taste. I just put all this together and whisk it. It is tasty.
