Grilled Asian Flank Steak With Mango Kale Slaw
Grilling recipes are wonderful in the summer because most of the time there is little prep work involved. With some advance planning for marinating, we often toss a marinated flank steak on the barbecue to enjoy. This particular recipe is packed with flavor and I know a handful of our readers out there have been waiting for some healthy meat based entree recipes.
- Mangoes are high in fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, Vitamin E, Potassium, Copper and Vitamin A.
- Kale is rich in vitamins A, C and K and folic acid, as well as calcium, potassium, copper and iron. These nutrients are necessary for healthy bones, skin and eyes.
- Flank steak is a lean, flavorful, boneless cut of beef.
