This month’s Blogger Food Challenge theme is Herbs and Spices. Can you see the terrified look on my face? Well, I sure wish you could. Though just like with any obstical you put in my way, I will find a way to beat it or at least do my very best. Today, we will be starting off this challenge with what on think to be a difficult recipes – made simple.
Feta and Spinach Stuffed Sirloin with Balsamic Glaze is elegant enough for Sunday afternoon company but simple and fast enough for a weekday meal. Packed with delicious and flavorful ingredients this is a favorite of the grown ups in my house, and chopped up is a hit with the kids as well ( they think it’s a steak salad). The balsamic glaze and Feta add a tangy kick that compliment the steak and spinach perfectly. Serve with mashed potatoes on the side for a delicious dinner (maybe a glass of red wine for mom).
