What a great lunch.. I did cook the steak stovetop, and added a tad barbecue seasoning to the steaks, other than made as written, definately a winner with the kids, enjoyed this for lunch for the four potatoes.. x x x x wonderful stuffed potatoes. Made for Gimme 5.. -
Oh yum..this was amazing...DH was in heaven!<br/>I used skirt steak tossed in a little smokey bbq seasoning and then flash fried, and threw some crumbled Stilton cheese into the potato and on top of steak too.<br/>Fabulous flavours for very little effort...a thoroughly enjoyable dinner..thanks Annacia x<br/>Made for PRMR. -
My husband says, "Now, this is a baked potato!" He can not say he did not get his meat and potatoes tonight, now can he? I used the George Foreman Grill to cook my steak. This method only took 5 minutes to cook the steak to 145 degrees. I also added some Danish Blue Cheese before adding the dressing. Made for Please Review My Recipe tag game from October 13th, 2010 -
Delicious. I have made this several times already as both my husband and I love it. It is so easy and good. A whole meal in one dish. As I was looking through my Zaar Beef Cookbook, I noticed that I hadn't written a review for this. Sorry! We are having this again tonight. My hubby will be so happy. Thanks again, Annacia. -
This was really good!! My son doesn't like blue cheese so he had a light balsamic vinaigrette which he loved. I like blue cheese :) I cooked the steak stove top and it worked wonderfull. What an easy "one plate" meal. Thanks Annacia for a great addition to my fav's. Just a note....If you reheat your dinner in the microwave the spinich will become bitter. So don't... LOL :) Made for Newest Zaar tag 2008
