Potatoes: fingerling ،atoes are the perfect size to air fry to crispy perfection after tossing in salt, pepper, dried thyme and avocado oil.

Salad: this simple salad is comprised of romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes and red onion.

Green sauce: whatever you do, don’t skip this green sauce! It’s made with a ton of cilantro, parsley, garlic, shallots, Greek yogurt, lemon juice and feta. It’s super creamy and pairs perfectly drizzled over the steak, ،atoes and salad.
