The veggies are wonderful. I can never get enough those. And, who doesn't like steak. I did tweak the sauce a bit.

I made a few slight changes because I carried it to work for lunch. First, I used a healthy choice roast beef from the deli at my local grocery, and I bought a store dressing with about the same ingredients used in the homemade and used frozen broccoli run under hot water and drained well. The salad was still very delicious! I am going to try it the original way also.
