Saucy beef strips, briny feta, and a refreshing peach salad come together for a delicious summer meal in 30 minutes.
In my previous post, I spoke about getting lost in the craft of cooking again, and while I was sitting out soaking in the hot sun, I had yet another creative spark...
Let me set the scene- hot summer nights (one may even say sultry), a cool Aperol spritzer, and one of these glorious wraps oozing with saucy steak strips and juicy peaches. Summer nights have me feeling a little...bougie.
The idea came to me when I had a basket of ripe peaches but it was too hot to turn the oven on quite frankly. So, I figured, why not a fresh summer fruit salad tossed with garden tomatoes and basil, spicy jalapenos, a drizzle of honey, and splash of balsamic? It's a palatable symphony that is as delicious on its own as it is served alongside grilled meat, fish, burgers, etc...
Today however, I'm serving it up in a soft flatbread with a beef roast sliced thin.
The result was a cool, refreshing meal that came together in 30 minutes.
Of course, in the recipe box below, I've included how I prepared the beef roast which I had prepared ahead of time. So, these wraps are a perfect way to utilize leftovers. If you have leftover chicken or fish even, both would work perfectly here as well.

Catherine, It looks pretty but to be honest I've never understood fruit and meat together...I don't even care for cranberry sauce with turkey. However, if someone made this for us, I would give it a try. Creative for sure... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

Looks pretty. Like David mentioned in the comments, I didn't care for meat and fruit combinations. If I still ate meat, I might have a closed mind on this one.
