    Grilled New York Strip and Sweet Potato Salad with Chile-Lime Dressing

    Normally, I am all in for rib-eye every time. It’s my favorite cut with it’s quality marbling of fat to meat ratios. But, we were keeping it a little more healthy for this meal, so I went for a leaner, thinner strip steak. It kept the fat in check, and the portions smaller than your average hunk of rib-eye. Pick a cut the suites you. We all have our preferred cut.

      I am completely sold with the addition of roasted sweet potatoes. I made a salad once with roasted butternut squash and I fell in love instantly so I know this one may be next.

      I am unable to eat spicy foods like chipotle. Is there something else I could add to the lime to make a good dressing that’s not spicy?

        Hi Julie, I would reduce the amount of minced adobo pepper in sauce to to 1/2 teas or less if that would work or I can see this also being very good with a creamy peppercorn or avocado dressing.
