• Total Time: Prep: 30 min. Grill: 10 min.

• Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 8 bacon strips
• 1 beef flank steak (1-1/2 pounds)
• 4 cups fresh baby spinach
• 1 jar (7 ounces) roasted sweet red peppers, drained
• CREAM CHEESE SAUCE:
• 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup 2% milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

Directions

• Place bacon strips on a microwave-safe plate lined with paper towels. Cover with another paper towel; microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until partially cooked.
• Meanwhile, cut steak horizontally from a long side to within 1/2 in. of opposite side. Open meat so it lies flat; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/4-in. thickness. Remove plastic. Place spinach over steak to within 1 in. of edges; top with red peppers.
• With the grain of the meat going from left to right, roll up jelly-roll style. Wrap bacon strips around beef; secure with toothpicks. Slice beef across the grain into 8 slices.
• Grill, covered, over medium heat 5-7 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Discard toothpicks.
• In a small saucepan, combine cream cheese, milk, butter and pepper. Cook and stir over low heat just until smooth (do not boil). Stir in blue cheese. Serve with pinwheels.
