Strip Steak in Mustard Marinade & Spinach Summer Salad

we had this for dinner tonight. I've been using this marinade for about a year now. I tweaked a recipe that I had gotten from the southbeach diet. The spinach summer salad is something I just threw together.

Makes 4 servings

4, strip steaks (a serving size is 4oz. so you may have to cut your steak in half once grilled- depending on the size of steaks you have chosen.)

Marinade:
1 tbsp whole grain dijon mustard
1 tbsp low sodium worcestershire sauce
1 tsp ground mustard
pinch of sea salt
pinch of ground pepper

mix all marinade ingredients into a small bowl. spread evenly on each steak and let stand for approx. 10 minutes. place steaks on a heated grill and grill to your satisfaction.

Spinach Summer Salad:
1 cup fresh baby spinach
4-5 tomatoes sliced in quarters
1/4 cup diced red onions
1 raw cucumber peeled & halved
2 tbsp balsamic vinaigrette dressing
(you can add fresh mushrooms to this dish as well, my man is no fan of fungus so I leave them out for the most part)

place all ingredients in salad bowl and toss.
