Lean steaks all dressed up in a special cranberry sauce and toasted almonds make a festive and delicious holiday meal. For your special guests and special times together.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 tsp (7mL) Mrs. Dash® Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend, divided
• 4 boneless eye-of-round steaks (4 oz/115g each), all visible fat discarded
• 1 cup (240mL) fat-free, no-salt-added beef broth
• 1/4 cup (60mL) whole almonds
• 1 Tbsp. (15mL) sliced almonds
• 1/4 cup (60mL) whole-berry cranberry sauce or 1/3 cup (80mL) fat-free or light sour cream
• 1 Tbsp. (15mL) prepared white horseradish

Directions:

1. Season both sides of the steaks evenly with 1 tsp Mrs. Dash® Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend.
2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks for 2 minutes on each side, or until browned. Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 30 to 40 minutes, or until tender. If needed, add water 1/4 cup at a time to keep the steaks from sticking. If desired, reserve 1/2 to 2/3 cup cooking liquid to spoon over the steaks before serving.
3. Dry-roast the whole almonds in a medium skillet over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Transfer to the work bowl of a food processor and let cool for 5 minutes.
4. Dry-roast the sliced almonds in the same skillet for 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Transfer to a small plate and set aside.
5. Process the whole almonds for 1 to 2 minutes, or until finely ground. Transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in the cranberry sauce or sour cream, horseradish, and 1/2 teaspoon Mrs. Dash® Garlic & Herb Seasoning Blend until well combined.
