Steak can easily be made into a healthy dinner.
When you stick to the ‘loin’ of red meat it is lean and a great way to get a boost of protein.
We are huge fans of buffalo meat in our house. Buffalo burgers, buffalo steak, you name it. Buffalo is extremely high in iron, super lean, and delicious.
Rather than slather it in a rich cream sauce I like to make a really simple glaze with tamari and balsamic that everyone loves. It takes two seconds and tops off your meal perfectly.
Bonne appetit!

Yum! This may be a silly question–but can i just buy buffalo at my local grocery store? Or is this a specialty meat?
