This healthy Autumn Salad with Pan-Seared Steak, Pecans, Apples & Raspberry Dressing makes for a delicious light dinner! <\/h2>\n

As much as I love living in Mexico, I do really miss a couple of things. Mostly chowing down on a delicious and tender steak whenever I feel like it.<\/p>\n

The province I used to live in, Alberta, is pretty much synonymous with choice cuts of AAA beef and while Merida has great steakhouses, it will never ever be quite the same.<\/p>\n

I created this salad recipe after having eaten an incredible steak salad in Calgary. It was one of those meals you eat and obsess over for days and days after. Does that happen to you guys or am I the only one who gets that excited over food. Can’t be.<\/p>\n

Well, trust me when I say, this healthy steak salad recipe is UHU-MAZING! If you’re the kind of person that thinks that eating a salad for dinner is kinda lame, then you clearly haven’t made this healthy steak salad recipe. <\/p>\n

What makes this steak salad recipe healthy? <\/h2>\n

Ordering a steak salad at the steak house might seem like a healthy choice at first glance but let’s face it. Often it is not. Croutons, creamy, sugary mayo dressings and, ahem, cheese? <\/p>\n

This steak salad has loads of healthy ingredients and a very light sugar-free healthy raspberry dressing. The salad vinaigrette features healthy fresh raspberries, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil all which are linked to numerous health benefits.<\/p>\n

As a fruit, I added apples which are extremely rich in important antioxidants, flavanoids, and dietary fiber. Those phytonutrients and antioxidants we find in apples may help reduce the risk of developing cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.<\/p>\n

Oh yeah, and let’s not forget about the pecans! Like most other nuts, pecans contain various nutrients, minerals, antioxidants and vitamins that offer some wonderful health benefits.<\/p>\n
