What NOT To Do With a Steak

 

Here’s the scenario:  You and your significant other are in the kitchen, enjoying libations, thinking about dinner. Relaxing, right?

Not for THIS couple.  Harsh words were exchanged and they made use of a steak in the most horrendously offensive way possible – a flagrant violation.

It was used as a weapon.

I cannot even bear to think about a beautiful steak being hurled about in order to inflict bodily harm.

Steak is meant for peace, man. Peace.

Read on here for all the gory details – if you can stomach it.

And let this be a lesson to all of us. Steak, when used in the manner it was intended, is one of the world’s most beautiful creations.

Let’s keep it in its place, folks!

Steak Muffins?

 

I truly had never considered this one before. But now? Well, the possibilities are endless!

This recipe for Philly Cheesesteak Muffins defies all boundaries of what a muffin should be. And yet, it doesn’t.

Why NOT serve tender meat in muffin form?

I am broadening my horizons and realizing that just because I’ve never done something before doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be done.

I’m growing.

Shall we grow together?

The recipe’s author, Gloria Hander Lyons, espouses the view that basically anything can be made into a muffin. Her booklet, Your Favorite Meals in a Muffin, is sheer genius.

Try it and let me know the verdict. Think of how handy these babies would be when you’re on the go!

I’m dying to know what you think!
