Flank Steak Spinach Salad image

Moist marinated steak, wild rice, almonds and veggies blend together nicely in this colorful main-dish salad. Years ago, a friend gave me the idea for this recipe, and with some tweaking, it's become a favorite of ours. -Freddie Johnson, San Antonio, Texas

This salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I wasn't a fan of this salad. The steak was a bit tough and the dressing was too tangy for my taste.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover flank steak. I also like to add some grilled vegetables to the salad for extra flavor.
