Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425˚. Combine the whole grape tomatoes, red onion chunks, basil and vinegar in a blender. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and blend until almost smooth. Add 1/4 cup olive oil and puree until smooth. Remove 2 tablespoons of the dressing to a small bowl.
- Place each steak half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound on both sides with the flat side of a meat mallet until 3/4 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper and brush with the reserved 2 tablespoons dressing. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the steak and sear until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
- Meanwhile, toss the bread chunks with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil on a baking sheet. Bake, tossing once, until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Immediately toss with the grated parmesan; season with salt and pepper.
- Combine the endive, radicchio, romaine, halved grape tomatoes, sliced red onion and croutons in a large bowl; drizzle with the dressing and toss. Divide among plates and top with shaved parmesan. Thinly slice the steak and add to the salads.

MY FAVORITE STEAK SALAD (WITH FRENCH FRIES!!!)
Sometimes, I just don't want to separately make a meat, a vegetable and a starch. This is an awesome all in one salad that my family and I enjoy often. The salad and the french fries in the salad are inspired by a restaurant called "The Decade" in Pittsburgh, which is sadly no longer in existence. You can really do whatever you want with this recipe - any ingredients - any dressings; I'm just sharing the way that we usually do it. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Using 4 dinner-sized bowls, layer the lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and eggs.
- Take your steaks out of the refrigerator, rub them with olive oil and season with the salt and freshly ground pepper. Leave them out for 30 minutes. This relaxes the meat fibers.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees, or whatever the instructions on your french fries call for.
- At the same time, preheat your grill for about 450 degrees for the steaks.
- After your oven preheats, put your fries in the oven.
- At the same time, put your steaks on the grill. Flip them after 6-8 minutes and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes for medium-rare/medium. Your fries will be done or close to done at the same time as the steaks.
- When done, turn off your oven, season your fries with the seasoned or regular salt. Put the fries on the salads.
- Slice the steak into bite sized pieces and distribute the pieces over the fries.
- Sprinkle the salads with the mozzarella cheese and croutons.
- Pour on the salad dressing in the amount that you desire and toss if you wish.
- Enjoy this delicious all-in-one meal!
