INGREDIENTS

1 cup cooked pearl couscous
400g steak
200g Brussels sprouts, halved
4 big handfuls mixed greens
1 cucumber, chopped
½ cup crumbled feta
Fresh parsley or mint
Chilli flakes, to taste
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt & pepper

ZESTY LEMON DRESSING

3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp honey
Salt & pepper

METHOD

Cook the pearl couscous according to packet instructions, then set aside to cool.

Toss the Brussels sprouts with a little olive oil, chilli flakes, salt and pepper. Place cut-side down in a hot pan and cook until golden and caramelised, then continue cooking until tender.

Season the steak generously with salt and pepper and sear in a hot pan until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest before slicing.

In a Medium Nesting Tray, combine the mixed greens, cucumber, fresh herbs, pearl couscous, feta and caramelised Brussels sprouts.

Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt and pepper to make the zesty lemon dressing.

Top the salad with the sliced steak, drizzle generously with the dressing and toss everything together.

Pop a lunch-sized serve into a Small Nesting Tray, snap on the lid and you’ve got a lunch you’ll actually look forward to tomorrow.
