SATURDAY EVENING STEAK




Had a busy day, needed something quick for dinner. Decided on steak and, as usual, flipped through latest Bon Appetit for some inspiration. Did Heirloom Tomatoes with Shell Beans Vinaigrette. Could not find any of the peas called for in the recipe so I used Baby Lima beans. It was delicious, didn't cook for as long as in the recipe, maybe because the beans I used. Also thought it could do with a little more basil. I made the amount for 8 even though there were only 3 of us as I thought it would be great as leftovers and it was. Had some for lunch next day and it had improved! Not much to say about the steak, did our usual rib-eye on the BBQ and it was pretty perfect.
