Aunt Rocky’s Cowboy Salad (LCHF)

Mix dressing ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Slice the steak into thin strips, and cut into bite size pieces if needed. If using leftover meat from the refrigerator, slice then warm in microwave for about 20 seconds to soften up the fat in the meat.

Chop the romaine and place in large bowl. Add thin sliced/chopped onion and quartered tomatoes. Add the meat and any meat juices from the plate, if you warmed it in the microwave. Drizzle dressing over the salad.

Top with avocado cubes and crumbled cheese crisps.

Tip: One of the reasons I keep liquid sweetener on hand is for recipes like this. There is no issue about trying to dissolve a granulated sugar substitute. If you can’t find liquid sucralose and have no other liquid sweetener, try using a little powdered erythritol and stir well to get it to dissolve, or just omit the sweetener.
