This horseradish-infused buttermilk dressing is the perfect topper for salads and sandwiches. Make a double batch and try the dressing as a dip with fresh vegetable sticks. The salad is so simple and ready in just 30 minutes. While the steak is broiling, cut a few other fresh vegetables like carrots, cucumber, and radishes to enjoy in the salad. Great for lunch or dinner, put this simple salad and terrific dressing on repeat when you're menu planning.To streamline prep, you can also use 12 ounces of sliced, cooked flank steak, especially if you're planning ahead and can cook the steak the night before while you're making dinner.
