Ingredients
1 lb beef top round steak, cut 1 inch thick
6 cups torn romaine lettuce
1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
1/2 small red onion, cut into thin wedges
2 Tbs crumbled feta cheese
8 Greek or ripe olives (optional)
2 pita breads, toasted, cut into wedges
Marinade:
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup olive oil

Combine beef, lettuce, cucumber and onion in large bowl. Add reserved
