The snow continued well into the evening and it was time to think about dinner. Philly is definitely the home of the cheesesteak. When I lived in other places I never thought about ordering their versions of the cheesesteak. My favorite place in Philly is Geno’s in the heart of South Philly. When I make cheesesteaks at home I cannot use the boxed brand of steaks(sorry), just not the real thing. Lucky for me there is a company in PA, named Landis that sells sirloin tip steaks( 0 trans fat). A cheesesteak is never complete without a good Italian roll, a Philly favorite is Amoroso’s. I usually saute onions, green peppers, and red peppers with a slice of American cheese(no Cheese Whiz here). After reading snippets from the book, Eat This, Not That, steak fries are a better alternative to regular frozen fries. I serve the cheesesteaks with Ore-Ida steak fries- 9 steak fries are only 110 calories.
This is all the comfort food I can stand for one day so I hope the snow goes away tonight.
