To make
We love chipotle-grated sirloin, but this salad goes great with any leftover steak.
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Combine 1 teaspoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, ground chili pepper and ground black pepper; grate steaks evenly. Transfer the steaks to the skillet; cook for 4 minutes on each side or until desired browning. Let stand for 10 minutes. Cut the steaks diagonally across the fibers into thin slices.Combine the remaining 4 teaspoons of oil, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, the juice, and the next 4 ingredients (including honey) in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add the quinoa, beans, bell pepper, coriander, green onion, and spinach; stir to coat. Sprinkle with feta cheese. Spread the quinoa mixture evenly over 4 shallow bowls; top evenly with the steak and avocado.
