Do you love a Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich as much as I do? Do you also have trouble getting a really good one? Here in the Deep South it can be a challenge.
I found this
recipe in Gooseberry Patches Homestyle Family Favorites Cookbook. I, of course,
have modified it slightly. Did you know you can get frozen steak strips at Sam’s?
Just thaw them out and cut them in strips. It’s an easy, affordable way to make
the sandwiches.
I also don’t
purchase a clove of garlic. I keep McCormick’s Garlic Powder in the spice rack.
It only takes ¼ teaspoon to get that garlic flavor and it’s so much easier.
This recipe
makes 6 sandwiches. Since it’s usually just my husband and I, we make two and
put the remainder of the steak mix in the refrigerator. We just pull it out,
prepare the bread, add the cheese, and put it in the oven. It’s an easy way to
use up the leftovers.
I hope you
enjoy these Philly Cheesesteaks as much as we do!
