Arugula Salad with Grilled Tri-Tip

We eat meat. A lot of meat. Well, ok, not a ton of meat but I feel like we are grilling steaks at least once a week. And it’s not just my husband and I. It’s the girls too. My youngest one can put away almost half a steak! I’m not sure if that’s cause for concern but we’re over it now. The first time she kept asking for more and had devoured more meat than her sister and me, we were floored. Those little tiny pieces we cut up would land on her high chair tray and disappear within minutes! But what can you do? This little almost 2 year old knows what she wants. And it’s more meat.

 

I have probably blogged about this marinade five times, so here’s #6. A salad. We topped the grilled tri-tip with sautéed onions and cremini mushrooms and some balsamic vinaigrette. It was heaven. Oh so good.

 

So, one last time for kicks, you must try this marinade. I’ve been marinating our meat overnight so the meat is juicy, tender and has so much flavor it’ll kill you, it’s so good. I hope you enjoy!
