Ingredients

• 200–300 g (7–10.5 oz) beef
• 1 can corn, drained
• 1 bell pepper
• 1 red onion
• 5–6 pickled or salted cucumbers
• 1 bunch cilantro
• 3–4 tbsp olive oil
• 1 handful walnuts
• Salt to taste

Instructions

1. Boil the beef in salted water until tender. Cool and cut into strips or shred into fibers.
2. Slice the bell pepper, red onion, and cucumbers into thin strips. Chop the cilantro.
3. Toast the walnuts lightly in a dry skillet and roughly chop.
4. Combine the beef, vegetables, corn, and cilantro. Add the olive oil and salt; toss gently.
5. Sprinkle with the chopped walnuts just before serving.

Tips

• Slice the beef against the grain for the most tender bite.
• Toast the walnuts just until fragrant — they burn quickly.
• Dress and toss the salad right before serving to keep everything crisp. Find more balanced meal ideas at allrecipes.com.
