Chipotle Steak Salad – WLS Recipes
Chipotle Steak Salad – WLS Recipes
Chipotle has got to be one of my all time favorite restaurants. I LOOOOVE their salads. While I typically get chicken, sometimes I change it up and go for the steak salad.
Order the salad…but SKIP the dressing. It’s a honey based dressing and loaded with sugar. Also skip the rice. Instead, put the fajita veggies on top with the meat and your favorite salsa. I don’t get the cheese because it’s not reduced fat and the calories aren’t worth it for me…but I do get the guacamole on the side and use about half of the cup instead of dressing. OMG my mouth is watering.
While my at home version is not even close to the same, it’s a great twist on an “at home” salad. Unless I’m really in a cooking mood, I won’t add all the fixings on my at home version, but a good selections of the basics will do. My big key here: use taco seasoning as the steak rub. It gives it SO much flavor and that’s what your really need to make a salad a winner.
