Like many Americans, we will be grilling steaks on Memorial Day. Whenever my husband grills, he always puts extra meat on the barbecue, so that I can use it in recipes through out the week. My menu plan incorporates recipes to use the leftover steak. I try to alter the flavors and the way I use it to create variety despite using some of the same key ingredients. We will also have 3 meatless meals to make up for the fact that we will be consuming so much beef this week.
Menu Plan with Recipe Ideas for Leftover Steak
Monday – Grilled Steaks with Worcestershire Sauce Marinade, Grilled Corn on the Cob, Herb Roasted New Potatoes, and Nutty Broccoli Salad.
Tuesday – Use leftover steak to make Southwest Steak Salad with Honey Lime Dressing.
Wednesday – Olive Garden Copycat Minestrone Soup and a garden salad.
Thursday – Use leftover steak to make Steak and Artichoke Frittata. Serve it with Strawberry Spinach Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette.
Friday – Make steak tacos by adapting Tegan’s Taco Recipes. I will cut up 2 cups of bite size pieces of steak, add 1 1/2 – 2 cups diced tomatoes and 1 -2 tablespoons of taco seasoning and cook it over a medium heat until it is heated through. Serve with Mexican Rice and Black Beans.
Saturday – Pizza Night! Pizza using gluten-free pizza dough and my easy pizza sauce. Serve with a garden salad.
Sunday – Use leftover black beans to make Mushroom and Black Bean Enchilada Casserole. Serve with a garden salad.
