the only exception

I don't like salad. There, I said it. Mixed greens salads that come on the side of an entree? I don't even touch them. I LOVE vegetables. But there is just something about salads that I don't like.

Unless there's stuff in them. The kind of stuff that is in this Beef + Red Pepper Salad with Miso Dressing from the June issue of Bon Appetit. Steak, avocado, red peppers, Persian cucumbers. Yes, yes, yes and yes. Miso dressing. Yes.

There's not really much to say about the salad. It was tasty. It was super-quick and easy - cook the steak, prep the veggies and dressing while it rests. Dinner in 15 minutes.

And because of the enthusiasm I'm feeling towards the June issue, I'm going to have to start participating in Magazine Mondays. Here's the first of I'm sure many submissions!
