Cannellini Bean and Flank Steak Salad

We love Flank Steak in this house.  It makes a great main dish and the leftovers are fantastic sandwiches.  I thought this salad would be a good way to use some leftovers and would be easy to pack for lunches and snacks.  

The vegetables add quite a bit to this salad.  They help to fill in the flavor of the steak and beans.  I hope you like it as much as we did.
