Pad Thai!!!! Yum!

Erynne came over today and we made some amazing Pad Thai! Pad Thai is one of Ben's favorite dishes and he has a hard time trying anything else on the menu at restaurants if Pad Thai is available. Loving wife that I am, I decided to make it. It was a great success and we will be trying it again, and again. Even the munchkins and a cousin loved it and asked for more.
Here is the link for recipe I used. http://www.thaifoodandtravel.com/recipes/padthai.html
I found that it was made using techniques very similar to fried rice, which is quickly becoming a family stable and is very easy to make! Thanks to Katie for the inspiration and encouragement to make Pad Thai!

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.
