I can definitely use this, I bought a whole ribeye and a whole strip loin in the past week so I need a lot of tasty beef dishes.

Yumm… pepper steak. We have it here several times a year, maybe more, grins. I add a pinch of sugar to balance out the peppers and the soy sauce, but essentially our recipes are very similar. So good!

You know I saw this earlier and guess what? I just ate some for dinner, but I did not cook it my good friend Sunny Garden down the road did, and they even delivered it…HA! Yes, you had me wanting it, but I was out working and it began to snow here, so I batted my eyelashes at hubby and he said go out or take out, I sang…\”Baby its cold out side…\”, now for a glass wine!
