Five kids. Five different opinions. 😂

I’ve learned that the easiest dinners aren’t necessarily the ones everyone loves equally. They’re the ones where there’s something for everyone.

And this crispy rice steak salad was exactly that.

Steak, crispy rice, fresh veggies, and a creamy homemade dressing. Everyone got something they loved, and I didn’t have to make five separate dinners.

A win is a win. 😂🤍

Save this one for your next steak night!

🥩 CRISPY RICE STEAK SALAD 🥑 Does it look like a chef made it? No. Did all five kids eat it? Yes. And frankly, that’s the only review I’m interested in. 😂🤍 CRISPY RICE * 3 cups cooked, chilled rice * 2 tbsp olive oil * ½ tsp garlic powder * ½ tsp smoked paprika * Salt to taste Toss together, spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake at 425°F for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden and crispy! STEAK * 1½ lbs sirloin steak * 1 tbsp olive oil * ½ tsp garlic powder * Salt + pepper Season, grill or sear to your preferred doneness. Let rest, then slice thinly. SALAD * 2–3 cups fresh baby spinach * 1 cup corn * 1 cucumber, diced * 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved * ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar * 2 green onions, sliced * 1 avocado, diced * Thinly sliced red onion (optional) CREAMY HOMEMADE RANCH * ½ cup plain Greek yogurt * ¼ cup milk * 1 tbsp lemon juice * ½ tsp garlic powder * ½ tsp onion powder * ½ tsp dried dill * ½ tsp dried parsley * Salt + pepper to taste Whisk together until smooth and creamy. Add a splash more milk if needed! ASSEMBLE: Start with fresh spinach, add your veggies, sliced steak, and crispy rice. Drizzle with homemade ranch! Add the crispy rice right before serving to keep that delicious crunch. 🤤 Serves 5–6. 🤍
