Slow Cooker Flank Steak and Swiss Chard Salad

So... Most of the cooking today was Sam in the kitchen and me supervising from the couch. Took a spill on her front steps yesterday that resulted in a case of softball ankle, so standing in front of the stove for extended periods is a no no.

I've been excited about the swiss chard that my grandma gave me from her garden for a bit, so I'm glad we finally had a day where we could use it. The salad is a basic cobb/spinach, using the chard instead of the regular stuff and mixing a couple dressings together to make a sweet dill sauce. Easy times, and no recipe since apparently mom got this out of a book.



A lot of my friends are big on fruit in salad, but I've always been more of a bacon and cheese girl.

On the other hand, the flank steak is all ours



Slow Cooker Flank Steak Stew

What We Used:

• 1 flank steak
• 1 fresh tomato
• 1 tin of stewed tomatoes (though it was a jar in our case, also given by grandma)
• 1 tsp oregano
• 1 tsp basil
• 1 tbsp fresh ground coriander
• 1 tsp fresh cracked pepper
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/4 of an onion
• 1/2 of a red bell pepper

Dump it in a slow cooker/crock pot until it's done. Profit.
