Mmmmmm...Steak. Salad.

Steak is a bit of a rare commodity in this house. Too bad, because I can put away a steak like it's no one's business. I come from red meat lovin' people.

I made the husband a steak salad for Father's Day...well, I actually made it for his "One Day Late Because You Were Outside All Night Working On The Kid's Clubhouse On Sunday...Dinner". He's such a good dad...spent his day making a rad pirate clubhouse for our little beasts.

This was easy peasy.  I used a 1.5lb sirloin steak. It's a cheaper cut of meat. Cost me just under $7.

I seasoned it and tossed it on the grill for about 9 minutes (4 on one side, 5ish on the other).

Then I took a bagged salad:

Mixed it with some Roma tomatoes & sliced red onion.

I tossed it all in some Balsamic Dressing. This stuff is phenomenal.

Then I sliced up the steak, put a few strips on top of the salad and topped it with bleu cheese. I love bleu cheese so very, very much.

Done.

Here's the pic again. Just because it's pretty.

Dad's Sausage & Peanut Butter Sandwiches

I am a Daddy's Girl. I always have been, always will be.
So you can imagine that being 1086.36 miles away from him on Father's Day is tough.
But instead of pouting about the distance, I put on my big girl pants and made me some of his crazy delicious breakfast sammies. These things are so good it's stupid. I looooove them.

Here's what you need:

Breakfast sausage (I use the links)
English muffins
Butter
Peanut Butter...smooth or crunchy.

Cook up the sausage. Toast up the muffins. Slather a bunch of butter and peanut butter on the English muffin. Place the sausage on the muffin...squish together and inhale,

Seriously...SO good. You must make them. Now. I promise I'll send your thanks on over to my Dad.

Stoked!

I am super excited about this week's menu! I have a crazy good roast made with pepperoncinis and BEER! Then I'm going to do a steak & potato salad for the hubs on Father's Day. I will also be sharing with you all THE best meal my dad ever made for me (Well, besides his tri tip)...Sausage & Peanut Butter Sandwiches. They are delightfully delightful. I have been dreaming about them and it's been a long time since they've graced me with their presence. So in honor of my Pops...I'm making them.

I'll post the recipes soon! Yay!
