Carne Asada

This is my favorite recipe I found while doing Whole 30. It is a yummy marinaded steak, sliced into strips and covered in an avocado salsa. The marinade by itself is delicious, but the sauce makes it amazing!! I usually serve with steamed broccoli and fresh pineapple on the side.

(adapted from Primally Inspired)

1-2 large steaks (I like sirloin or London broil)

1/3 cup white vinegar

1/3 cup olive oil (or whatever oil you like)

1/3 cup apple juice

2 juiced limes (I usually just do a couple good squirts of bottled lime juice)

4 cloves of garlic, minced

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. pepper

1 tsp. chili powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp cumin

1 tsp dried oregano

Mix the white vinegar, olive oil, apple juice, lime juice, garlic and spices together. Pour over the steak in a gallon ziplock bag, coat, and marinate in the fridge overnight. Broil or grill to desired temperature. Slice into strips and serve with tomato-avocado salsa on top. I love to use the left over salsa as a salad dressing. So yummy!!!

Tomato Avocado salsa:

2 medium tomatoes

1 ripe avocado

1 jalapeño, seeds removed

1 small onion, chopped and sautéed

1 lime, juiced (I use bottled lime juice)

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. salt

Place all ingredients in a strong blender or food processor and mix until smooth.
