Summer Steak Salad and Shrimp Flatbread with Kerrygold Cheeses and Butter

steak salad
Summer is right around the corner. It’s already warm enough here in Florida that we’ve been going to the beach or local spring almost every weekend. When it’s this warm, I tend to gravitate towards salads for lunch and dinner. They are quick, easy and light, and also great for company. I made these a few days ago for a later lunch we shared with my Brother-in-law and nephew.

For this salad, I made 1 thick cut ribeye, sliced it thinly and served it over a big beautiful salad made with curly leaf lettuce, watercress, radishes, tomatoes and onions. I topped it with an incredible Blue Cheese, Kerrygold Cashel Blue Cheese. It’s honestly the best blue cheese I’ve ever had. The consistency of this cheese is creamy and buttery. The taste isn’t too strong, but still has a very full, complex flavor. It pairs wonderfully with this steak salad.

I also made  a flatbread with Kerrygold Dubliner Cheese that we ate as an appetizer before the salad. I used marinara sauce, shrimp, red pepper and red onions. After it baked, I garnished it with lots of freshly chopped basil. The Dubliner had a wonderful flavor that went perfectly with the shrimp and sweet red peppers.

I made a couple of these flatbread pizzas. They were great appetizers, and the kids loved them.

I quickly marinated a thick rib-eye in a combination of balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce before cooking it in a large cast iron skillet. Then I thinly sliced it and topped each salad.

For the dressing, my brother-in-law made this simple balsamic vinaigrette. It had lots of garlic flavor and delicious Italian herbs. It paired perfectly with the salad and Kerrygold Cashel Blue Cheese.
