Wendell's Shaking Beef Salad


My family is "dieting" and trying to avoid rice, so Wendell made this for dinner one night. I loved it! The meat was tender and the dressing divine!!!

Wendell found the recipe here. If you do go and check out the website, read "About SeonKyoung".  The author/cook is originally from South Korea and says that cooking saved her.

Looks really good! No rice? I gotta have rice, but you and the fam are being smart to restrict carbs. Wendell will be the captain and cook - you so lucky!
