A Moms Love Pittsburgh Steak Sandwich

Great for Superbowl

Mom's Recipes

Chuck's Pittsburgh Steak Sandwich

I took Chuck to Primante's last week for a steak sandwich, so
he said mom, let's make one at home and we went to the grocery store
and this is what Chuck put together:

1 box of Sandwich steaks (Giant Eagle Brand)

1 Loaf of Italian Bread (sliced thick)

1 red onion (sliced thin)

1 Bag Ore-Ida Extra Krispy Golden Krinkles

1 bag of pre-made cole slaw

Marzetti's Cole Slaw dressing

Frank's Red hot Sauce

Fry french fries then fry steak (45 seconds one side, 15 the other side)
Place steak on one slice of Italian bread, pile some french fries on steak,
layer with onions, layer on cole slaw you have mixed with cole slaw dressing
and sprinkle with some hot sauce, place other slice of bread and take a bite.
hmmm, sooo good.

This week, Charlie's girlfriend came over and we watched The Day After Tomorrow.
(good movie) She said let's have a chicken wrap sandwich, so we went to
the grocers and bought:

Shauna's Chicken Wraps

Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

Big Flour Tortillas

1 green pepper

1 tomato

1/4 red onion sliced thin

1 can of black olives sliced

Red lettuce

1 bottle of ranch dressing

Cut up chicken into bite size pieces and saute'
in olvie oil, dice pepper into small pieces, dice
tomato. Warm tortillas in oven or microwave.
To assemble open tortilla and put chicken then
green pepper, tomato, onion, olives and ranch dressing.
You can sprinkle some Frank's Hot sauce on it too.

Now that's good eating!

What we're having for dinner

Rachel came over...first of all my husband loves Rachael Ray because I am cooking again,
but anyway, Monday, Rachel and Pete came over and we had
Bratwurst
Pierogis
Sauerkraut
onions and butter or butter substitute
Nice Italian sausage buns
Ice Water, Juice

Johnsville Bratwurst....just fry it...actually follow pkg. directions...
first place in water and cook...etc.
Rachel chopped some onions (save some onions for pierogis) and simmered them to that she added
sauerkraut...get the one in the glass jar. She simmered the sauerkraut for about 45 minutes or more.
I boiled some water and cooked the pierogis....when Peter came she
warmed the pierogi up by frying them in the butter.

It was a very good meal.

Another dinner I made this weekend that lasted a good part of the week was
It was dee lish! Racheal Rays not sagna

My Mantle Decorations so far....

OK this is hard to see, I need to add some bright silver and gold balls and maybe another tree.
If you click on the photo you can see it better.
Bernie cut some holly for me and I got the ribbon at pat catans and the candles and bead garland at target.
