Steak Salad with Balsamic Dressing and Blue Cheese


     I love a great salad and I love it even more, when there is a little protein in it and what
     better protein non other than, a great steak. Soft and tender and done to perfection.
       
   This is a great salad for a crowd and perfect to use any left over steak that you may have.
                You can easily adapt it to your liking. Men will really like this.

                               Steak Salad with Balsamic Dressing and Blue Cheese

                                         2 Fillet mignons - cooked to your liking - room temp
                                         1 pint of cherry tomatoes - I roasted mine with garlic
                                         1 bag spinach spring mix
                                         1 shallot - minced
                                         3 ounces blue cheese
