Philly Cheese Steak Stroganoff

I made this Roast Beef up for our Valentine's Dinner. It is very good.

Roast Beef
Mix
3 tbs kosher salt
2 tbs course black pepper
Rub into bottom round beef roast. Roast in oven at 450*F until a nice crust is formed. Lower temperature to 300*F and put temperature probe into roast. Roast until interior reaches Medium rare. Remove and let cool. Refrigerate overnight. Slice into deli meat. This is amazingly wonderful meat.

I had some left over meat and made this for dinner tonight! It was so quick and easy. I made it up with the thought of stroganoff. My husband loved it and said that it reminded him of a Philly Cheese Steak on Pasta! Two of his favorite things to eat.


1 can Cream of Mushroom
1/4 cup green pepper
1/4 cup onion
1/2 cup white cheese(provolone, mozzarella, or swiss)
1 1/2 lb deli Roast Beef sliced into strips
1 1/2 cups beef bullion
1 cup sour cream
1 lb pasta of your choice

Saute onion and green pepper. Add cream of mushroom soup and cheese, simmer. Warm up bullion to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in beef. Combine soup and beef, fold in sour cream. Serve over pasta.

Asian Sesame Pork Stir Fry

Last week had some inspired ideas for dinner, so I thought I would share by way of documenting for future cooking.
I had some country style pork ribs (they have no bones). I usually cook them with a little BBQ sauce for a tasty (and a bit heavy) dinner. Alas No BBQ sauce in the fridge.... so I sliced it thin on the bias and removed as much of the fat and connective tissue as possible. The trick is to under cook the pork so that it is barely finished when served.

Asian Sesame Pork Stir Fry
2 tbs sesame seed oil
1 tbs soy sauce
1 lb thinly sliced pork
1/2 cup Feast From the East Sesame Dressing (or other kind of Sesame dressing)
2 cups frozen mixed peppers
1 cup sliced onions
Saute pork in oil and soy sauce until barely a little pink. Remove, pour on dressing and set aside.
Saute peppers and onions in the pan adding more oil if needed. Return meat to pan with peppers and onions. Serve over rice. Could be really nice with crunchy chow mien noodles or add pineapple for a sweet flavor.
