This simple Thai-inspired salad, made with a handful of ingredients, comes together quickly thanks to thin-sliced deli roast beef. If you have leftover roast beef in the fridge, it would make a nice substitution.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, lime, sesame oil and cilantro.
Line a plate with the lettuce leaves and top them with the roast beef.
Arrange the cucumber around the meat and spoon the sauce over the top of the dish.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped chili.
Recipe Notes
I made a basic salad with just the beef and refreshing cucumber slices with a little lettuce on the bottom. I was serving additional veggies but if you use this as a lunch in itself, add halved cherry tomatoes, chopped scallions or red onions andmore greens. Unless you're a real hot spice person, keep the chili amount the same—just one, seeded and chopped.Deli meats have a lot of added salt, so with the soy sauce it's a good idea to avoid adding any more additional salt. To make things even simpler, use an English or Persian cucumber; you can leave these varietals unpeeled and just slice and add.Sesame oil is intense, so use very sparingly. If you choose, you can avoid it completely and just use a neutral vegetable oil.Serving size: ½ recipeClick here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.4*SmartPoints (Green plan)4*SmartPoints (Blue plan)4*SmartPoints (Purple plan)5*PointsPlus (Old plan)
