Steak and Cheese Subs

Dan and I have very different eating habits to say the least. 

Dan is a meatatarian and I'm well...anything but that...

Since we've moved in, Dan's had to suffer through more than enough "Lauren Meals"..so I decided to make a "Dan Meal." I think it turned out to be a success!

Even though I don't eat much steak, I'm a huge lover of steak and cheese subs.

I mean it is smothered in melted cheese after all...

You can't hate that!

Makes about 4 small subs

Ingredients:

• 1/2 pound shaved steak
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 green pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• olive oil
• 5 slices american cheese
• small sub rolls
• butter

Recipe:

• In a pan, saute onion and peppers in olive oil
• Add garlic to peppers and onion
• Cook until tender
• Remove veggies from pan
• Add shaved steak and cook until browned
• Drain excess grease from pan
• Add veggies
• Stir until combined
• Add american cheese
• Mix until well combined
• In a separate pan, melt butter
• Add sub rolls to pan and toast on each side until warm and buttery
• Add steak mixture to sub rolls

French Dip Bites

Thank you Emily from Emily Bites for this recipe. These french dip bites are seriously to die for! It tastes like man food, but they look super cute at the same time! They would be perfect for a party, especially a fathers day party for this upcoming weekend.

 You can't go wrong with these unless you serve them to a crowd of vegetarians. I even liked them, and I'm not a huge roast beef fan. I guess the meat being smothered in sauce and gooey cheese helped haha. To me, they tasted exactly like steak and cheese. Next time I might mix some chopped peppers and onions in with the mix too!

Serving Size: About 12 "Bites"

Ingredients: 

• 10 oz deli roast beef, thinly sliced and chopped (I used rare roast beef so that it didn't overcook in the oven)
• 4 Laughing Cow Light Swiss wedges
• 1/3 c Au Jus gravy (I just used a pre-made kind from the grocery store)
• 24 wonton wrappers
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (I was lazy, so i just chopped up some mozzarella into mini bites)

Directions:

• Pre-heat oven to 375 degress. Spray a 12 cup cupcake tin with cooking spray. 
• Combine the roast beef, cheese wedges and au jus sauce in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 2 minutes on high. Stir mixture so that cheese and sauce is melted and combined with the roast beef.  
• Push two wonton wrappers on the bottom of each cup of the cupcake tin. I like to place them diagonally on top of each other to get better coverage. Evenly distribute the roast beef mixture into each cup. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. 
•  Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown. I know it will be tempting, but let them cool for a few minutes
