Elegant steak roll-ups: A restaurant-style Valentine’s dinner at home

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated mozzarella

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and offers a cheesy flavor.

Chop leeks, potatoes, and carrots for roasting.

Drizzle chopped vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Place vegetables on a baking sheet and roast them.

In a small saucepan, heat balsamic reduction on low until it reduces by about 25-50% and coats the back of a spoon.

Pound the sirloin steak to about a quarter-inch thickness using a meat mallet.

Spread an even layer of pesto over the pounded steak.

Add a layer of baby spinach on top of the pesto.

Roll the steak from the thin end to the thicker end to form pinwheels.

Heat a pan with cooking oil and sear the steak pinwheels on all sides.

Transfer the seared steak pinwheels to the oven to finish cooking alongside the roasted vegetables.

Let the steak rest off to the side while the vegetables finish roasting.

Plate the dish, drizzling balsamic reduction over the top and adding more grated cheese.
