Crockpot Fajita Steak

I wanted to try doing a flank steak in the crockpot, and this is what I came up with.

1 decent sized flank steak
juice of 2 limes
2 TBS olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp cumin
2 tsp chili powder
3 cloves garlic
1 onion, sliced
1 green pepper, sliced

Combine lime juice and seasonings in large ziploc bag.  Add steak and veggies and let marinate at least overnight (this is one of those easy to prep at the beginning of the week meals that you just throw in the crockpot when you need it).  Cook on low for 8-10 hours.

Another Kale Salad

The Commissary had some beautiful organic kale on sale the other day, and I decided to try my hand at a kale salad.  I know it's been done a gazillion times before, but I couldn't find a recipe that was exactly right, so I threw some stuff together and this is what I came up with.  I could eat the whole recipe by myself.

2 bunches fresh kale, stems removed and torn into small pieces
1TBS olive oil
1/2 tsp sea salt

Place kale in a large bowl and massage olive oil and salt into the leaves.  It will break them down a little bit and make them more tender.

Dressing:
1 ripe avocado
juice of 1 lemon
2 TBS red wine vinegar
1 TBS olive oil
1 TBS mustard
1 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp chili powder
Combine and blend with a hand blender.  It will be really thick.  Add to kale and massage to combine.
Add:
2 TBS each of pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, golden raisins, and dried cranberries
1/2 apple, diced

Enjoy!
