Organic Sirloin Steak Salad

Organic Sirloin Steak Salad is tasty, healthy and extremely easy to make. The meat is practically melting in your mouth, and it tastes really delicious.

I feel like grass-fed organic beef or meat, in general, is absolutely delightful. It can be paired with potatoes, rice or over salad. So versatile!

How to prep a steak:

Get the steak out of the fridge and allow it to come up to room temperature about 30 minutes before cooking. You also need to make sure your skillet or even BBQ is very hot before you begin cooking the steak.

During the cooking process try to make your steak medium-rare or at least medium because you do not want chewy pieces of meat.

Also, try to turn a couple of times during cooking so the meat could cook evenly on both sides. Last but not least, you have to leave your cooked steak to rest, grilled or pan-fried.

For a 1-inch thick sirloin steak:

  • Blue: 1 min each side

You may drizzle steak juices later when you serve it. It is very important for the steak to be juicy, so allow it to rest for about three to five minutes before slicing.

Sirloin steak is cut from the rear back portion of the animal. It is also very tender and has an amazing flavor.

My family truly enjoyed this amazing Organic Sirloin Steak Salad. I mean what’s not to like, right? It is beautiful as well as delicious.

It is also fantastic if you want to have a romantic dinner with your partner or a quite fancy dinner if you have guests.

In the end, you may just want to treat yourself with an amazing meal.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate Chip Cookies are simply the best. Does anything smell better than a cup of coffee and freshly made cookies early in the morning? I certainly do not think so.

I can tell you one thing, my kitchen smelled divine this morning. As I was pulling my Chocolate Chip Cookies out of the oven for my children’s school snack, my coffee finished brewing.

It was a rather chilly morning. I put my sweater on and walked out to enjoy the crisp fresh air with my hot coffee and warm cookies.

What an amazing morning; peaceful, delicious and most certainly warm!

These chocolate chip cookies are just perfect for a snack or dessert. Of course, they are amazing with a mug of coffee, a warm cup of tea or perhaps to have something sweet just to kill the cravings.

You can add chips or chunks, maybe break into pieces your favorite chocolate bars, such as Hershey’s or Dove.

My family really loves dark chocolate. However, every now and then these inexpensive chunks serve a great purpose for baking, of course, ahem midnight snack too!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate chips are one of the most beloved cookies in my house, and I assume in so many of your houses.

When you have kids, especially young ones prepping and baking cookies and phenomenal bonding between parents or grandparents and kids. You could be a cool rock star aunt or uncle when you spend some time making cookies with your nieces and nephews.

In my humble opinion, there is nothing more special than creating happy memories with young ones. Unplug yourself from social media and do just that espcially over the holiday season. Well, you can thank me later!
