OUTRAGEOUS!!!!! I made this two days ago and we are still talking about it. I had left over steak which I didn't want to throw out - I saw this recipe and tried it. I used argugala instead of spinach since that is all I had but you could use any type of greens in this. THIS IS A KEEPER! It was sooo easy. My guy suggested that I now always make extra steak so that I can make this salad. Thanks submitter.

The dressing is outstanding. Easy to prepare with few ingredients. Very satisfying as a main dish. It's even great cold as leftovers, although, I don't like it re-heated.

This made for a wonderful light salad dinner. The dressing is unlike any I have ever had before and was delicious. I have really enjoyed making your recipes. Thanks for sharing them.

I didn't like this recipe. The dressing was weak and the sweetness didn't mesh with the steak and potatoes at all. Maybe it would have been better with ranch dressing and with spinach instead of the iceberg I had on hand.
