Steak Salad with a Homemade Cranberry Pear Vinaigrette
This is the salad that eats like a meal and still feels a little dressed up. Tender slices of steak, rested just long enough, layered over crisp greens with a mix of textures that keep every bite interesting. What pulls it all together is the cranberry pear vinaigrette—bright, slightly sweet, and tangy in a way that cuts through the richness of the steak without overpowering it. It’s bold but balanced, fresh but satisfying, and perfect for nights when you want something nourishing that still feels indulgent.
One of my best friends doesn’t like fruit on salads—and this is the one that might have changed her mind.
