Steak, Apple & Bleu Cheese Salad

Delicious salad with juicy steak, crisp apple slices, tangy bleu cheese and a drizzle of vinaigrette.

Salad Ingredients

This salad uses simple ingredients that you can customize to your liking.

Steak: The star of the show is the steak. Grill it or pan sear it, either way works.
Apple slices: You can decide what type of apples you like. Make sure they are fresh and crisp.
Bleu cheese: Cheese is cheese but bleu cheese in this recipe just adds a little something.
Bacon: Bacon makes life better but can be omitted.
Vinaigrette: The vinaigrette in this recipe just balances everything out and makes the salad come together.

We use a good old flank steak for this recipe. It's perfect for using in salads.

We recommend honeycrisp, fuji, pink lady or other similar types of apples.

You are welcome to substitute feta if you would like, but the bleu cheese really adds some great flavor to the salad.

I love a regular balsamic vinaigrette or an apple cider vinaigrette. Both are delicious!
