You all are probably starting to think that I should change my blog name to Dine and Whine instead of Dine and Dish, aren’t you? Have I been crabby the past couple of posts or what? Sorry to bring you all down, but thank you for pulling me back up. The comments on my last post about the restlessness I am feeling really put things into perspective for me. The post struck a chord with many of you and your personal accounts and advice are so appreciated.
I do not have a lot to say today (first time for everything, isn’t there?) but I have been holding on to this recipe for so long and keep forgetting to post it. This is a Recipezaar recipe… and was a spur of the moment try for me. We always have a lot of minute steak in our house and finding creative things to do with that type of steak can be difficult. This recipe for The Ultimate Steak Sandwich has to be the best use of minute steak that I have found. If you try it, I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

I LOVE the look of that bun and the pic in general, even though I’m vegetarian!
Those look so good Kristen, with the peppers and the mushrooms and the garlic, I love garlic! I always enjoy reading your posts, crabby or not! 🙂
Not that I think you should change the name at all. But Dine and Whine made me giggle.
This looks so comforting! Thanks for posting it.
I’m glad you are feeling a bit better. Your steak sandwich pic just made me want to have dinner all over again!!
