Size: serves 4

Ingredients:
SALAD:
2 (6 oz) beef tenderloin steaks, trimmed (3/4 to 1")
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Cooking spray
1 (6.5 oz) package sweet butter lettuce blend
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup thinly sliced English cucumber

3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
1/4 cup chopped red onion
2 tsp chopped fresh chives

Directions:

Prepare grill.

Sprinkle steaks evenly with salt and pepper. Place steaks on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 5 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

While steak stands, combine lettuce, tomato, and cucumber in a large bowl; divide evenly among 4 plates. Top salads with steak slices. Drizzle evenly with Creamy Horseradish Dressing.
