This comes from Parents' Magazine. For pesto lovers, the steak is spread with pesto and there is pesto in the coleslaw. This is economical using round steak, but a nice sirloin would work as well. For prep ease, buy commercially prepared pesto (my favorite is Buitoni). Ingredients:
1 lb red skin potatoes |
2 1/2 lbs round steak |
pesto |
white bread to make croutons (or purchase ready made) |
butter |
coleslaw ingredients |
1 cup sour cream |
1 tbsp white wine vinegar |
1/4 cup pesto |
salt and pepper to taste |
1 pound package coleslaw mix |
