Low-Carb Recipe of the Month:
Flank Steak with Red Wine Vinegar and Greens
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Number of Servings: 6 servings
 1
tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound flank steak, cut into 2 equal pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves or 1 teaspoon dried
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
5 ounces (1/2 bag) Italian salad blend
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Season
both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper to taste. When the
oil is hot and shimmering, add the steaks and cook, tuning each
once, until seared and rich mahogany, about 6 minutes per side.
Transfer the steaks to a plate. Add the garlic to the pan and cook,
stirring occasionally, until aromatic, about 1 minute. Pull the
skillet from the heat, add the vinegar, and use a wooden spoon to
scrape up any browned bits that cling to the pan. Stir in the oregano,
butter, and any juices from the steak, until the butter melts. Add
the greens to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and toss
just until they begin to wilt, about 30 seconds. Slice the meat
against the grain into thin slices, divide between 2 plates, top
with the greens and the pan juices. Serve.

Curves in the Community
Several Curves members and the two owners participated in a work
day at Habitat for Humanity in Sarasota. It was an excellent experience
and we have since been to the dedication of one of the houses. What
a great experience to be involved with.
