Eating out from time to time is really great, fun, but it can get expensive. My husband works far and doesn't have enough time to come home for lunch. Eating at restaurants everyday isn't financially efficient and is nowhere near as good as a homemade meal made with love and delicious ingredients. I prepare his lunchbox for work like I do for my youngest daughter for school. If you've got leftovers from the night before, you can give them a creative twist to create a new dish to take with them. You can also prepare something fresh and easily enjoyed in an office. On Sundays we usually grill at home. When we have leftover meat I cut it into strips and put it away to make a delicious salad with different greens, meat, yogurt and blue cheese for my husbands lunch. Give it I try. It's convenient, nutritious and it's perfect for work.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 yellow pepper
  • 1/4 red pepper
  • 1/4 orange pepper
  • 1 churrasco steak cut into strips
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Ground pepper, to taste
  • 1 small bag of mixed greens (spring mix)
  • 1 tablespoon of shredded carrot

  • 1/4 cup of blue cheese, crumbled

For the yogurt cream

Directions

  •

    Heat the skillet or grill and add the peppers to cook, flipping constantly for 5 minutes. Now season the meat with salt and pepper to taste. Cook alongside the peppers until they're browned outside and are cooked medium inside, so they don't dry. Let cool a few minutes.
