Our Philly cheese steak sandwich dinner is in the crock pot and it tastes so, so good! I browned some baby bellas in the frying pan with a little butter and some garlic olive oil and put it into the crock pot as my first layer. Then I carmelized a large onion that I cut into slices, adding garlic just before the onions were done and placing them as the second layer. I sliced red bell pepper and green bell pepper as the third layer. I bought thin-sliced sirloin and cut it into strips and added that as my fourth layer. I then mixed a package of garlic and herb salad dressing mix with about 14 ounces of beef broth and poured that over the contents of the crock pot. I cooked this on high for about four hours. (We will be eating dinner soon.) Hubby tasted it and wanted me to increase the au jus, so I added more beef broth. (He wanted there to be leftovers for tomorrow or Wednesday.) We will soon enjoy this on sweet French rolls, adding Provolone and using the au jus as a French dip type of sandwich. This is so easy and one of my better sandwich meals. I bought fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, mangoes, bananas, nectarines, apples, and peaches) for a fruit salad with vanilla bean cream cheese fruit dip. I also added a can of Del Monte Very Cherry fruit cocktail that has a cherry-flavored light syrup. I will serve the fruit salad with a cranberry-citrus oat Newtons cookie. Dinner is just about ready.
