Simple doesn't have to be boring — so we cooked up a menu that turns regular ol' meat and potatoes into a spicy, Argentinean-inspired main. So tonight, fire up the grill and watch this old combo tango it's way back into your good graces. (And as always, don't forget to save room for dessert!)
Salad
Sweet onion, orange and almond salad
Salad, two ways: choose mache as your base and you've got a light, sweet starter — choose arugula, and it's a peppery citrus salad to rev your taste buds as you approach the main event.
Dinner
Barbecued steak with Argentinean sauce and crispy fries
Chimichurri sauce is as essential to Latin cuisine as pesto is to Italian. Try one of two versions of this amazing sauce over your steak tonight.
Dessert
Fresh basil and strawberry meringue
These decadent meringues with strawberry toppers bring an impressive flourish to the end of any meal.
