Ribeye Salad with Cornbread Croutons

What is lovely about this recipe is that if you wish to serve the ribeye separately you can. Here it is being incorporating into the salad. Both meals can stand alone. Bringing them together is a nice way to mix up two delightful dishes.  A ribeye is a center best portion of the rib steak, without the bone. The marbled fat from this steak brings a wonderful smoky taste to this salad when charred.

 DIRECTIONS:
