food recipe

Directions• Remove steaks from refrigerator and let warm to room

temperature. For salsa, quarter tomatoes and place in a bowl. Sprinkle with onion, chili peppers, garlic, cumin and 1/4 tsp salt. Stir and set aside.

• Oil grill and preheat barbecue to medium-high. Season both sides of steak with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and Worcestershire, if using; rub in. Barbecue until meat gives slight resistance when pressed, about 4 minutes per side for 1" thick steaks if you like them medium-rare.

• Remove to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, butter both sides of bread, using 4 slices for open-face sandwiches or 8 if you want top slices. Place bread on grill.

• Barbecue until lightly toasted and grill marks form, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

• Cut avocado in half and remove pit. Peel avocado or scoop pulp from skin. Cut in large dice.

• Place on tomatoes, then drizzle with lime juice. Stir gently to mix. Taste and add more salt or lime juice, if you like.

• Slice steaks crosswise in the thickness you like for a sand-wich. Divide equally among 4 slices of bread. Spoon salsa on top (and top each with another slice of bread, if desired).

• Additional recipes and barbecue ideas are available at www.walmart.ca/recipes. THN

www.newscanada.com

Ingredients• 2 Strip Loin or Top Sirloin Steaks (about 8 oz. each)

• 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes, preferably a mix of red and yellow

• 1/4 cup finely chopped Red Onion

• 1/2 tsp Great Value Crushed Chili Peppers

• 1 large Garlic Clove, minced

• 1/2 tsp Great Value Ground Cumin

• Salt and Black Pepper

• Worcestershire or Hot Pepper Sauce (optional)

• 2 tbsp Butter, at room temperature

• 4 to 8 thick slices Italian-style White Bread

• 1 ripe, firm Avocado

• 2 tsp Lime Juice

STEAK SANDWICHES WITH TOMATO-AVOCADO SALSA

PREPARATION TIME: 20 minutesTOTAL TIME: 30 minutesSERVING SIZE: 4 servings with 1 ½ cups Salsa

This take on a barbecue basic will not only make your brown-bag lunch jealous, but will also have the neighbours lining up for seconds and thirds. Rustic and easy to make, this feast (as seen in Walmart Live Better magazine) offers a satisfying meal for both parents and kids.
