Black and Blue Steak Salad with Roasted Vegetables

No one knows what to do with leftover steak.  It's not really great heated up and eaten like steak the next day because it gets overcooked. Therefore, most people either throw it out, let it sit in their refrigerator until they can justify throwing it out, or eat themselves into a food coma so that there is no leftover steak.  Well, I'm sick of it. It's a waste of perfectly good steak.

Here's how you can use leftover steak in order to create a hearty and delicious salad. Thinly sliced steak, grilled veggies, blue cheese, and balsamic vinaigrette.  YUM.  Enjoy :)
