food recipe
Directions• Remove steaks from refrigerator and let warm to room
temperature. For salsa, quarter tomatoes and place in a bowl. Sprinkle with onion, chili peppers, garlic, cumin and 1/4 tsp salt. Stir and set aside.
• Oil grill and preheat barbecue to medium-high. Season both sides of steak with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and Worcestershire, if using; rub in. Barbecue until meat gives slight resistance when pressed, about 4 minutes per side for 1" thick steaks if you like them medium-rare.
• Remove to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, butter both sides of bread, using 4 slices for open-face sandwiches or 8 if you want top slices. Place bread on grill.
• Barbecue until lightly toasted and grill marks form, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Cut avocado in half and remove pit. Peel avocado or scoop pulp from skin. Cut in large dice.
• Place on tomatoes, then drizzle with lime juice. Stir gently to mix. Taste and add more salt or lime juice, if you like.
• Slice steaks crosswise in the thickness you like for a sand-wich. Divide equally among 4 slices of bread. Spoon salsa on top (and top each with another slice of bread, if desired).
• Additional recipes and barbecue ideas are available at www.walmart.ca/recipes. THN
www.newscanada.com
Ingredients• 2 Strip Loin or Top Sirloin Steaks (about 8 oz. each)
• 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes, preferably a mix of red and yellow
• 1/4 cup finely chopped Red Onion
• 1/2 tsp Great Value Crushed Chili Peppers
• 1 large Garlic Clove, minced
• 1/2 tsp Great Value Ground Cumin
• Salt and Black Pepper
• Worcestershire or Hot Pepper Sauce (optional)
• 2 tbsp Butter, at room temperature
• 4 to 8 thick slices Italian-style White Bread
• 1 ripe, firm Avocado
• 2 tsp Lime Juice
STEAK SANDWICHES WITH TOMATO-AVOCADO SALSA

You can rent whenever it's convenient for you. People looking for a place to stay will only see yours if it's listed on the specific dates they've entered. You can also rent long term or short term - the choice is yours! A great time to host is when you're going to be out of town - on vacation, travelling for work or at the cottage. Why not make some money if your home is sitting empty? Alternatively, take a look at your community's calendar - major events in the city, like FIFA or Pan Am, are a big tourist draw which means an influx of people looking for accommodations.
Y O U H A N D P I C K W H O S T A Y S .
Bottom line: read reviews. You want the person staying at your house to have positive previous reviews. If you don't like someone's review then you don't need to rent to them. It's as easy as that. This system provides extra reassurance that your guest will be respectful of your home. In the unlikely event that something does go wrong - Airbnb comes with a host guarantee which means your property is covered for up to $900,000 CAD.
M O N E Y I N T H E B A N K .
With Airbnb, hosts set their own price so you'll never rent for anything less than what you want. On top of this, there is only a 3 percent hosting fee which means you're getting extra security for a very low cost. You also receive your payout approximately 24 hours after a guest leaves which is fast money in your pocket.
