Chopped Steak Salad

Today is a Chopped Steak Salad. I love a big interesting salad filled with tons of crunchy ingredients!! I was inspired by seeing all the wonderful chopped salads over at KC’s blog The Kitchen Chopper. KC has loads of fantastic salads and healthy dressings!! An endless supply of delicious chopped recipes!!!!This salad is the full meal deal with steak, cheese, peppers, radish, jalapenos, cucumbers, celery, spinach, lettuce and loads more!! Your jaw will get a good workout eating this gorgeous salad!! I like red onions but most of the time they are too potent for me. I tried a quick marinade in cider vinegar to mellow them out and it worked perfectly.

Salad toppers are easy to find now in your grocery store and they add protein, flavor and crunch to any salad!!
