Steak Sandwich

Ok so this is my new favorite sandwich.  It is probably one of the best things I've eaten in recent memory and I could eat this every single day if I could get away with it.  I love the new Food Network show Pioneer Woman because I'm a Southern girl and I love anything that is a down home kinda hearty meaty Southern dish.  I saw this sandwich on one of her recent episodes and actually bought the stuff to make it that night.  The sandwich is chopped cube steak.  I use cube steak all the time, why did I not think of this!  I love onions and peppers so I added a ton to my sandwich and my husband just had meat and cheese on his.  So easy to throw together and so satisfying!  I honestly can't wait to make this again!

Steak Sandwich

1 package of cube steak (usually 3 pieces roughly), chopped
1 yellow onion
1 bell pepper
1/4 c. Worcestershire sauce
A few splashes of hot sauce
1 stick of butter
2 large hoagie rolls
Salt & Pepper to taste
2 slices provolone cheese

Add about 2 tbsp. of butter to a cast iron pan (or skillet) and throw in your peppers and onions and cook until almost tender.  Take out and set aside.  Salt and Pepper your meat.  Then turn the heat up a bit so you get a good sear on your meat and add about another 2 tbsp. butter and toss in your meat.  Add the onions back to the pan and add in the Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce.  Finish sauce with remaining butter.  Generously butter a skillet and place hoagie rolls face down to get them nice and brown as well on both sides.  Top roll with meat, onions, peppers and add cheese.  Enjoy!

Corned Beef & Egg Sandwich -"The Leewich"

I made my husband an egg, cheese and corned beef sandwich when he came home for lunch today.  He loves his eggs over easy so when I do egg sandwiches for him I always do them over easy despite the mess factor.  When I cut the sandwich open and put it down in front of him he asked me why I wasn't taking pictures of his sandwich.  I told him the sandwich wasn't anything special, just a sandwich but he was so excited about his ooey gooey egg yolk mess that he insisted I take pictures of it for my blog.  So, the picture is of him holding up the sandwich for me to take a picture.  I made myself one as well and I do agree with him, it is a fantastic sandwich though nothing overly special.  So he felt this sandwich should be named after him (his name is Lee) hence the name "Leewich".  It is manly man sandwich.  My husband is on a high protein diet as well as he lifts weights a good bit so I always try to make him high protein lunches.  This sandwich packs a whopping 48 grams of protein.


The Leewich

2 slices of toast
3 oz. corned beef, thin sliced
2 oz. provolone cheese
2 eggs

Spray pan with nonstick spray and drop in your two eggs.  Cook them how you like.  I choose to do ours over easy.  While they were cooking I toasted my bread.  I added mayonnaise to one side and mustard to the other.  I added the eggs.  Then I placed the corned beef in the hot skillet and cooked until warm.  I added the cheese on top of the corned beef in the skillet it to allow it a chance to melt.  I then added it on top of the eggs.  Hope you enjoy!
