Balsamic Drizzled Steak with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Steamed Green Beans

It's dinnertime! Well, it will be at some point. When you get stuck in a rut and you can't decide what to make, try this recipe. You will love it! There is SO much flavor packed into this that you will be blown away and amazed at how delicious it is.

Now, I'm not a huge fan of balsamic vinegar, but I've found that if used correctly it tastes amazing!! I still don't like the smell of it, but I just can't get enough of the deliciously tangy sauce that comes out of it in this recipe. It is definitely a new favorite.

Let's get started!
Generously serves a family of 4

 Ingredients

  • 4 Sweet Potatoes
  • 4 Cloves of Garlic
  • 4 Ranch-cut steaks, 5oz each (about 1-inch thick )
  • 3 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
  • Fresh Rosemary
  • 8oz Container of Grape Tomatoes
  • 12oz Green Beans (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 Tsp Beef Stock Concentrate
  • 3 Tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 Tsp Sugar
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper
Directions
  1. Make sure wash and dry the sweet potatoes, grape tomatoes, and green beans (if fresh). Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Cut the sweet potatoes into wedges. Pick/pull off the Rosemary leaves and roughly chop until you have about 2tsp. Discard the stems. Smash 2 cloves of garlic with the back of the knife and mince or grate the other two cloves. Cut the tomatoes in half, lengthwise.
  3. Grab a baking sheet and toss the sweet potato wedges, the smashed garlic, 1tsp of the chopped Rosemary, and a drizzle of olive oil. Once evenly coated season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 22 minutes or until tender and slightly golden in color. Mix/toss halfway through.
  4. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper, on both sides and cook until seared on the surface- about 3 mins per side. Then, add to another baking sheet and cook in the oven for 7 minutes or until desired doneness. Remove from oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  5. If using fresh green beans, add them to a medium sized microwave safe bowl with a splash of water, cover with plastic wrap (poke a few holes in the top) and cook for 5 minutes. Drain the green beans, return them to the bowl and add 1/2 tbsp of butter. Toss until evenly coated.
    • If using frozen green beans, follow the directions on the package to steam them or cook them on the stove. When cooking is complete, add 1/2 tbsp of butter.
  6. Heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat in the used steak pan. Add the grape tomatoes and minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until slightly softened and fragrant. Stir in the 3tbsp of balsamic vinegar, ½ tsp sugar, remaining rosemary, and 2tsp of beef stock concentrate. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove pan from heat and stir in 1tbsp of butter and season with salt and pepper.
  7. Thinly slice the steak against the grain, then divide between plates along with green beans and sweet potato wedges. Drizzle the tomato vinaigrette over the steak and serve.
Enjoy!

Valentine Paper Heart Door Decorations

Here is a great way to show love to your children for the month of February. I started doing this last year for my son and he enjoyed every minute of it. He liked it so much that every day he would be excited to see what I had written down. What am I talking about? Well, let me tell you... Valentine's Paper Heart Door Decorations! All I did was cut out these cute red, pink, white, etc. paper hearts and wrote down one thing that I love about my son. Then each day I would tape one paper heart to his bedroom door for him to see. By Valentine's Day, he had 14 of these awesome hearts on his door showing him some of the things that I love about him. Since my daughter is a little bit older this year, she's only one- haha, I thought about doing this for her as well. This way, both of them can be excited about seeing some of the things I love about them the most. All you need to do is find colored construction paper and cut out 14 hearts- one heart for each day of February un

Cutest Toddler Ever - Chicken Halloween Costume

I know it's too early for Halloween stuff, but I had to share this amazing costume my mom made my daughter. It's a chicken costume! And it is the best costume I have ever seen! Is this not the best little kid costume ever?! I can't get enough! Believe it or not, grandma made the whole costume by hand. Here's her secret: Supplies A lot of white feather boas (she used 20+ thin ones from the Dollar Store. You would likely need less if you purchased a better quality boa.) Two white long sleeve onsies Batting (this is stuffed between the two onsies for added plumpness) Yellow rubber kitchen gloves Crochet chicken hat Yellow leg warmers Steps: For the feathered bodysuit, place one onsie inside the other; stuff batting between them, and sew together at the necklines and leg holes so the batting doesn't come out. With your child wearing the bodysuit, drape boas across and around the body; and safety-pin in place as many boas as you want. The more
