Saturday was move in day into my new apartment. My parents, Spencer and I spent much of the day packing up at my parents house and unpacking at the apartment. Spencer took care of a lot the heavy lifting and helped my dad put together some furniture. My mom and I got my new kitchen set up, and washed all my dishes and cookware which had been in storage for a few years. Spencer left after a while to shop for the dinner he so nicely offered to make me that night.
I had an idea that he was making steak salad. We had seen some recipes in his Men'sHealth magazine that he was excited to try. When I walked into his house, hot and exhausted, it smelled like a restaurant. I was so impressed!! There was Spencer, standing at the counter chopping and making this awesome presentation.
He had grilled some skirt steak, chopped up onions and added bleu cheese. The salad was topped with a tasty balsamic vinaigrette. Notice the separate tomatoes. Spencer doesn't like tomatoes, but was thinking of maybe trying some mixed in with the other ingredients. That way they wouldn't be so tomato-y:) He didn't want to fully commit by mixing them into his salad. He picked up some great French bread and we shared a bottle of red wine from our Carmel winetasting trip. This salad was so delicious and what made it better was that I didn't have to do a thing!
