Steak Cobb Salad Meal Prep
Description
The recipe involves pan-searing steak seasoned with salt and pepper in butter and olive oil, then letting it cool before dicing. Hard-boiled eggs are cooked to a firm texture and diced. Baby spinach forms the leafy base, topped in rows with the diced steak, eggs, halved cherry tomatoes, pecan halves, and crumbled feta cheese. This assembly creates a structured, colorful salad.
Flavors include the savory richness from the steak, mild creaminess from feta, sweetness and acidity from tomatoes, plus crunch from pecans. The baby spinach provides a fresh, slightly earthy base. The salad is versatile for meal prepping, accompanied well by a variety of dressings.
The notes mention using different steak cuts such as New York strip, rib-eye, or filet mignon, allowing personalization. Dressing is not specified but can be added as desired at serving time.

Instructions
