Fajita Salad at The Happy Housewife

I was pretty excited when the Beef people asked me to try out a few recipes from their website. My family LOVES steak and I am always looking for new ways to incorporate it into our meals without busting the budget.

My beef choice was top round, which is also called London Broil. I was thrilled when I opened the sale flyer and found that it was on sale at my local grocery store for $1.99 a pound! Another tip for saving on beef is to buy when it is a loss leader. Grocery stores will often deeply discount one or two cuts of meat to get you into the store. Stock up during these sales!

I bought 5 1/2 pounds of top round, which should last my family three meals. That equals $3.68 per meal for meat (for 8 people). A little more than I usually spend, but we get to eat steak, so I am willing to splurge on these meals and save on others.

The recipe from the website is called Red, White & Beef Salad, and while it looks great, I modified the recipe to better suit my family.

Fajita Salad

Author: Toni Anderson

Ingredients

  • 1 beef top round steak or 2 chuck shoulder steaks cut 1 inch thick (about 1-1/2 pounds)
  • McCormick Steak Seasoning
  • Olive Oil
  • 8 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1 can 15 ounces black beans, rinsed, drained
  • 1 cup frozen corn defrosted
  • 1/3 cup prepared ranch dressing or sour cream
  • 1/3 cup prepared salsa
  • 1 cup broken tortilla chips

Instructions

  • Prepare steaks either on the broiler or grill.
  • Combine beans and corn and place on top of a plate of lettuce.
  • Slice steak into thin slices and place on top of salad.
  • Drizzle dressing or sour cream and 1/3 cup salsa over beef.
  • Serve with chips.

Fajita salad was a HUGE hit with my family. My son said it was the best salad he has ever tasted. I thought it was pretty tasty myself and was pleased to find another no oven recipe to add to my list. The fact that my kids are eating lettuce, black beans, and corn is another bonus. For my non salad eaters, they ate the ingredients separately.

Disclosure: I received a gift card to cover the cost of the ingredients, all opinions are my own.

    So I tried to take the survey but didn’t know I was supposed to keep track of what I answered. oops. We usually have ground beef or roast, once in awhile steaks.

  8. Angie @ Many Little Blessings says

    Took the survey, but didn’t realize I had to be keeping track of my answers — thought it would do it for me. Honestly — I tend to buy all kinds of beef products. Whatever is on sale. 🙂

  9. Nicole says

    Top round, but I usually buy what I figure is the best deal, although we do love steaks!

  10. Coralee says

    at

    Most of my answers corresponded with “e” Top Round.

  11. Genevieve (MamaOnABudget) says

    They matched me with top round or lean ground beef. Beef is always a happy meal for me!

  12. Thea @ I'm a Drama Mama says

    I was Top Sirloin…which I’ve never had. I guess I’ll have to try that out the next time I’m at the store!

  13. Kimberly says

    at

    I was mostly E’s, so my match was Top Round. I actually don’t think I have ever even had top round, so I will definitely be giving it a try!

  14. Amanda says

  18. Megan says

    at

    Well…I picked a different letter for every question, so I guess I don’t have a “usually” and that about sums it up because 2x a year I go to a farmer and buy a grass fed cow and split it with several other families. I guess we like a variety…

  19. SPKarenO says

    at

    LOL!!! I selected 1 each of b, c, d, e and f. Match that!

    We love steaks! Well actually, all beef! I try not to eat it too much, but I do love me some cow!

  20. Julie says

    at

    I got matched up with ground beef. Seems to fit, as it is quick and nothing fancy and what we often use as an ingredient for a quick and easy dinner.

  21. Donna C. says

    Top round for me!

  22. Cindy A. says

  46. Melissa says

    I’m a Top Round, but Top Sirloin was a close second (three points to two).

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  47. Angela says

    at

    Lean ground beef…kind of boring…I was hoping for a good steak or something! But, yeah, that doesn’t fit my crazy, kid-centered life at all right now! Ground beef it is!

  48. Kari says

    at

    I got top round – but I prefer t-bones. 🙂

  49. Amy Lynne says

    at

    We matched up with strip steak or top sirloin. It’s funny because I usually don’t buy those cuts of meat, but it would be great to try!

  50. Janell says

    Im tied between Lean Ground Beef and Top Round.

  51. Amanda Y. says

    at

    Mine was Top Round…which I’ve heard of being cheaper and good, but thought was fatty, but I’ve learned its also a lean cut–can’t wait to try next time it’s on sale!

  52. Jolene says

    at

    I got matched to ground beef

  53. diane says

    at

    i was “D” strip steak, but i only had 2 @d! TY for this awesome survey!!

  54. Di says

    at

    I got strip steak. (Actually it was the only one I had 2 the same. I guess that my answers were accurate in that we love our beef and enjoy lots of different cuts.)

  55. Mandy C. says

    at

    I got strip steak. We love steak in our household!

  56. Stephanie says

    at

    Top Round! I will be on the lookout for this at the store. I have been happy with flatiron steaks, too, for the price, taste, and versatility.

  57. cathy says

    at

    looks like it’s strip steak! great bargain. Oh, and the $100 gift card would be really nice!!

  58. Karen says

    at

    My answers were split between top round and ground beef, but we love it all!

  59. Rebecca says

    at

    My answers were kind of all over the place, but I did have 2 Bs. So Top Sirloin it is!

  60. Becky says

    at

    Top round- guess it matches my frugality. I will actually buy whatever is the best value and then find a recipe online when I get home.

  61. Julie says

    at

    I’m the strip steak 🙂

  62. Sharon Warner says

    at

    Top Round. I read the suggested recipe for stir-fry, it sounds great! I will be making that with the top round I bought on sale last week. Thanks.

  63. Abbygail says

    at

    I didn’t keep track either, but I know my match would most likely be ground beef though wouldn’t I love to be filet!

  64. Darla says

    at

    Looks like I am a top sirloin type of person.

  65. Rhonda GreenBarron says

  68. TESS says

    at

    I was matched with top sirlion and when I buy steak it is always top sirlion. It would be great to win the $100.00.

  69. Tina says

    at

    Top Round – I buy whatever’s on sale though.

  70. Kathy T says

    at

    My match was top round also. My answers were almost all different though, I only had two that were the same. Was a little surprised that ground beef didn’t come up.

  71. Anna C says

    at

    Top round! I’d love the gift card, biding time as a SAHM, my last month then back to work 🙁

  72. Brandi Jones says

    at

    I got matched with a filet. I do not think I wil complain about that!

  73. Kim says

    at

    I’m half b, half e. Not really sure what that means. I love a good hamburger or hamburger steak with ground sirloin. I’ve also discovered that Top Sirloin can be cut into individual steaks for a tasty (yet inexpensive) steak dinner.

  74. Elaine says

    at

    Mine is London Broil!

  75. laura says

    at

    Mine was a two way tie between strip steak and ground beef, seems like a reasonable fit for us 🙂

    ~Laura

  76. Amanda Classon says

    at

    Wouldn’t you know it…I gave every answer except “b”. So, I came to the conclusion that I just like meat…doesn’t really matter which kind, just meat.

  77. abbie says

    at

    I don’t eat beef but I am sure my husband would love that salad!

  78. Deborah G says

    at

    Top sirloin here, at least I know how to cook that one. LOL

  79. Sharon @ UnfinishedMom says

    at

    I came out Top Round! I just might have to check out some of their recipes.

  80. Vonda says

    at

    Wow…this salad looks so good. On these hot days of summer–this will be the best. Thanks for sharing!

  81. Gina says

    at

    They say I’m strip steak but I never buy that… I have recently discovered the yumminess of top round steaks, cut nice and thick… I buy a round roast and cut our own steaks to save a bit.

  82. Mary says

    at

    I matched most with Top Sirloin.

  83. Rebecca says

    at

    I am top round and ground beef….I figured I’d be ground beef..it’s versatile and easy to make. ;0)

  84. Jen@balancing Beauty and Bedlam says

    at

    $1.99 a pound?? Yes, I would have stocked up even more. 🙂 We love our BEEF and this looks delish! Yea for the Cattleman’s Beef guys.

  85. crystal young says

    at

    Is seems I am a “Ground Beef” person. Seems like a good fit since we have that at least once a week.

  86. Leslle says

    at

    My choice was strip steak. I have tried them before and look forward to trying the recipe that followed. It sounded yummy!

  87. Phoebe @ GettingFreedom says

    at

    Tie between Top Sirloin and Top Round. I usually leave the beef purchases up to my husband, because I’m clueless. I think I’ll start paying more attention.

    Your recipe sounds yummy and my family would love it.

  88. Shannon says

    at

    I am apparently a strip steak. Yum!

  89. Vicki F says

    My personality match up is Top Round. The Sumptuous Steak Stir Fry is a perfect recipe for my family!

  90. Sheila says

    T-bone, but none of the answers actually suited me. 🙂

  91. Kristian says

    I’m the Strip Steak!

  92. Sandi says

    at

    So I was top sirloin or top round….hey, cheap and versatile! That’s me 🙂

  93. susan young says

    at

    surprise, surprise…I was matched up with ground beef 🙂

  94. Heather says

    at

    If most of your answers were E’s
    Try a Top Round: Like a diamond in the rough, the Top Round steak shines with a splash of the right marinade. Yet it’s priced more like cubic zirconium, meaning your family can enjoy that decadent beef taste you love without breaking the bank. But with just 4.6 grams of total fat per 3-ounce serving, Top Round is one of the leanest cuts you can get. Try our Sumptuous Steak Stir-Fry for a delicious, colorful meal that’s tops on nutrition, yet lean on cost.

    My beef match is filet. Celebrating my 4 year wedding anniversary this week, maybe we’ll have to cook it. 🙂

  96. Laura L says

    at

    Looks like I’m ground beef. Funny though since most of my answers had to do with kids and my 3 year old would much rather have steak than ground beef!

  97. Melinda says

    at

    Ground beef! Makes since – the entire family likes it when I cook with lean ground beef!

    Mine was lean ground beef….not very exciting but it does suit my life with 4 kids right now.

  106. Dorie says

    at

    Ground beef is what I matched which is my least favorite. I don’t like hamburgers and the only way I will eat ground beef is if it has cooked in the crockpot all day. But I hate spending the money on the more expensive cuts. So perfect match!

  107. Katie M. says

    My match was strip steak!!! Love that stuff! So quick and easy to prepare

  120. Beth says

    at

    B’s and D’s were tied for me- which equates to top sirloin and strip steak. Sounds good to me- we try to have a steak or roast dinner 1-2x per month, and maybe something lighter- like fajitas with the leftovers. In the summer, we pretty much put everything on the grill.

  121. Army Blogger Wife says

    I came out a “top round” — I’ll have to give it a try.

  126. Melissa says

    I’m lean ground beef! Sounds about right since that’s all I really cook with. I don’t experiment much with other types. But your fajita salad looks so yummy. I might have to try that this summer!

  143. Becky L says

    at

    Top Round. I think all but one answer was “e.” I don’t know that I’ve ever had top round, though. I’ll have to give it a try!

  144. Wendy says

    at

    I didn’t keep track of my results either. 🙁 I usually buy whatever is on sale. Last spring we bought 1/4 of a locally raised black angus. It was so good I will probably buy a 1/2 next time! 🙂

  145. Katherine says

    at

    My answers were all over the place, but I went with “lean ground beef” because that’s what we usually buy!

He’s the chef and I just ask him over the weekend to make one of his famous stir frys (or is it – fries?!?) this week! They knew me! And, their “ranch rub” sounds good – he had just said he was going to look for a new rub to make so guess we’ll try theirs!

  185. diane says

    I have always loved a good steak. Since moving to Missouri, I am sometimes able to purchase grass-fed, local beef…the flavor is nothing like any meat I have ever tasted before…delicious and very low fat…no hormones, either.

    It said I was strip steak! Our family of 6 loves all kinds of beef, especially on the grill. Thanks for the recipe, I can’t wait to try it!

  265. Kara says

    at

    WOW! Your salad sounds amazing! I am always looking for a great salad. I would recommend trying grass fed Black Angus beef when cooking your london broil steak. It is absolutely delicious and a healthier option. I work with La Cense Beef and because our beef is 100% grass fed it is higher in omega 3 acids and lower in calorie and fat as opposed to traditional grain fed beef. Try grass fed Black Angus Beef and you will be able to taste an even bigger difference!

  266. Chris Ann says

    I am strip steak.
    Thanks for the recipe recommendation , great photo.
    I think a $100 Visa Card is an awesome prize.

    My survey result was: “Top Sirloin”.This most versatile lean cut provides 10 essential nutrients for just 156 calories per 3-ounce serving, making the Top Sirloin tops in nutrition too. Here’s our recipe for Sizzling Sirloin Kabobs on a Bed on a Bed of Orzo; in the time it takes to get to soccer practice, you’ll be serving your family more nourishment in fewer calories and they’ll be enjoying each and every bite.
