Step 1

Soak eight 8-inch bamboo skewers in water 10 minutes.

Cut beef steak into 1-1/4-inch pieces. Toss beef and bell peppers with 1 tablespoon basil, dressing and garlic in large bowl. Alternately thread beef and peppers onto skewers.

Jillian Says:
When it comes to processed foods, very few brands pass the test for me. When selecting a dressing for the salad, choose Newman's Own and you'll know you're in good shape. If you'd rather just eat it plain or with oil and vinegar or lemon juice, that's fine too.
