Avocado, Orange, and Sunflower Seed Salad

I love salads but get uninspired sometimes. But a couple of good friends of mine are always coming up with the most amazing combinations of things. When they came for dinner over the weekend, they brought a salad with:

• mixed greens
• mandarin orange sections
• chunks of avocado
• roasted sunflower seeds
  

Topped with a delicious vinaigrette--Brianna's French vinaigrette.

I added some leftover slice steak to it for lunch the next day and it was delicious!

My mother's simple marinade for flank steak:

an equal amount of lemon juice

a garlic clove or two, crushed or diced

salt and pepper to taste

a bit of parsley

Marinade a few hours and barbecue.
