Fast & Easy Dinner: Steak and Potato Salad
Tonight serve your loved ones a meal inspired by the classic steakhouse dinner of meat, potatoes, and wedge salad. The potatoes are roasted in the oven, while the ribeye steaks are seared on the grill. A quick but wildly flavorful salsa verde (a mixture of chives, capers, oregano, thyme, and garlic) coats the cooked and crispy potatoes.

Served in an Avocado Bowl, Strawberry Salsa Is Scrumptious
Here on YumSugar, we've gone a little avocado crazy, but with Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, how can you not be? A little while back, I stumbled across a strawberry-salsa-stuffed avocado recipe, and with the berries' fragrance overpowering my farmers market, I remembered that I had wanted to give it a shot.
Although I've never thought of using strawberries as a base for salsa, the resulting dish is outstanding!

Do You Prefer a Steak or a Salad?
I'm not sure why anyone needed to do a study on this, but it's official, men like meat. A recent study questioned 14,000 American adults and it's been confirmed, men were more likely to choose meat over veggies. I guess I'm one of the exceptions to the rule, as a big juicy steak sounds far nicer than a plate of leafy greens.

Monday's Leftovers: Lamb Salad with Sweet Potatoes
My sister and I recently got into a debate over whether or not meat was necessary on a salad. While I don't think it's necessary, I do think it's a delicious addition. I especially love the way the meat juices create their own sort of dressing.
