    List of Ingredients




    Dijon dressing
    1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
    1/4 cup Dijon mustard
    3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
    1 garlic clove, pushed through a press
    3/4 teaspoon granular sugar substitute
    1/2 teaspoon dried basil
    1/4 teaspoon pepper

    Salad
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 1/2 pounds filet mignon, cut into 4 equal portions
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    10 ounces mixed salad greens
    Low-carb croutons (optional)

    Recipe



    1. For the dressing: Whisk all dressing ingredients together in a medium bowl until creamy. Set aside.

    2. For the salad: Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add steaks to skillet and cook until an instant-read meat thermometer registers 140 degrees F when inserted in center of steak for medium-rare, eight to 10 minutes, turning once halfway through. Remove from skillet, and cut steaks into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper.

    3. In a large bowl, toss salad greens with 1/2 cup dressing. Arrange greens on a platter; top with beef and croutons, if using. Serve with remaining dressing on the side.

    Servings: 4
    Yield: 4 1/2 cups greens
