Steak & Bleu Cheese Salad with Blueberry Balsamic Dressing

Steak & Bleu Cheese Salad with Blueberry Balsamic Dressing is a hearty and healthy salad with fresh blueberries, tender New York strip steak and bleu cheese all dressed in an easy homemade blueberry balsamic dressing.

Steak Salad

Steak & Bleu Cheese Salad with Blueberry Balsamic Dressing is hearty enough to satisfy any appetite. It combines fresh blueberries and mixed greens with tender New York strip steak and bleu cheese all dressed in an easy homemade blueberry balsamic dressing for a luxuriously simply weeknight dinner.

It is easy to get in a salad rut. I tend to start throwing the same grilled chicken, basic veggies and dressing together and call it a day. I then begin to bore of salads, but then I remember they can be so much more.

Fresh Fruit Salad

Fresh fruit and nuts are one of my favorite ways to spice up a salad, and the addition of steak is a refreshing  change. Some of my favorite salads with fruit include Citrus Shrimp Salad, Pistachio Goat Cheese Berry Salad and Grilled Peach Salad.

I had some blueberries left over from these Mini Blueberry and Meyer Lemon Cream Pies I had made a few days prior and I picked up a nice New York Strip, one of my favorites, at the grocery store. This salad came together wonderfully and was so fresh and flavorful. Even my brother and Dad will go for a salad if it is topped with a tender grilled steak and this salad really woke up my salad routine. I will definitely be making it again!

Steak & Bleu Cheese Salad with Blueberry Balsamic Dressing

Yield: 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes

This salad blends fresh blueberries, honey and tangy balsamic vinegar to dress a hearty mix of grilled steak, bleu cheese and toasted pine nuts for a hearty salad anyone would love.

Ingredients

Blueberry Balsamic Dressing

  • 1/4 c. olive oil
  • 1/2 c. blueberries
  • 1/4 c. orange juice
  • 1/4 c. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. Dijon
  • 1 Tbsp. honey
  • 1/4 tsp. salt

Salad

  • 12 c. mixed greens
  • 1 lb. steak
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 c. bleu cheese
  • 2/3 c. red onion
  • 1 c. fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 c. pine nuts

Instructions

  1. In a blender or bowl with immersion blender, add all of the dressing ingredients and blend until smooth.
  2. In a medium skillet over high heat, add your pine nuts and toast them for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds. Removed the pine nuts from the heat as soon as they are browned and set aside.
  3. Spray your skillet with non-stick spray. Season each side of the steak with salt and pepper and add to the hot skillet. Cook to your desired temperature and remove from the heat. Let sit for 5 minutes before cutting into thin slices, so the juices have a chance to settle.
  4. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss the mixed greens with blueberry balsamic dressing, bleu cheese, onion, blueberries and pine nuts.
  5. Lay the steak over the salad and serve immediately.

    Hello! I am interested in trying this blueberry balsamic dressing, but I do not see balsamic vinegar in the ingredients list. Please let me know if all the ingredients are listed. Thanks!
