We loved this. I only used 1 medium-large red onion and left out the mint because I forgot to pick some up (and thought Mike's suggestion of a breath mint wouldn't do) We grilled the steak until rare and I served the salad along side the steak rather than over. We loved the taste combination and sopped up the leftover juices from both salad and steak with some Italian bread. We will have this often I am sure. It reminded Mike of a dressing his mom made, which is always nice. Thank you!
