ROSEMARY-MERLOT FLANK STEAK
I had seen flank steak on sale at the meat market, so I decided to give it a try. It was such a nice change from our typical chicken dishes! Good stuff!
As far as an update on my weight loss, I am on Week 15 and down 21.75. I have to say that these Cooking Light recipes really make it easy for me to stick to the program. I have yet to have a bad meal and they don't taste light at all!

This looks so delicious! I love flank steak. Congrats on your weight loss!
I bet the beef tasted incredible with the merlot. I love healthy food that doesn't taste light too ;). I've yet to be disappointed with Cooking Light.
