Rachael Ray: Croque Madame

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Since I love Rachael Ray Croque Monsieurs so much, I thought I’d try a Croque Madame, and I’ll go ahead and tell you now: I did make the fried egg on top for the picture, but I did not eat it. I thought about trying it, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. So while you may be disappointed, I still really enjoyed my sandwich! I also made the strawberry salad to go along with it, it was delicious!

Notes: I did everything like the recipe said, except I made the salad for 1. Like I said I made the egg, just chose not to eat it.

Rachael Ray: Sliced Steak Sensation

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Here is a Rachael Ray recipe that doesn’t call for 100 ingredients! This sliced steak is excellent. It is full of flavor and it is ready in about 15 minutes! This meal let me have some sides that we like at our house. I grilled up some squash on my grill pan and made a little broccoli and cheese, which are 2 of our favorites at our house. So serve this steak up with your family’s favorite sides!

Husband Says: “It is good.”

Notes: All this recipe is, is mixing hot sauce, EVOO, white wine vinegar, and worcestershire sauce together and rubbing it over a London Broil or Top Round Steak. I didn’t measure out any of these, just about a teaspoon of each. I put mine in the oven on the rack 2 from the top instead of the top for about 6 minutes on both sides. Sometimes I get scared putting stuff on the top, especially with oil. It can splatter, at least in my oven, when you open the door, so I thought 2nd from the top would be fine. Be sure you let the steak rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting it.
