Introducing Mr. Hungry and his favorite meal.
How can I possibly be sharing my kitchen and recipes and not ever address my biggest taste tester, my husband, Mr. Hungry. Whether it's the fact that he will eat anything I put in front of him (at least once), or the countless times he has walked in the kitchen and said, "What do you think you could whip up in here for me to eat?"... the name just fits.
And what better addition to his introduction than his favorite meal: Steak Sammies. I have to say this is one of those times where my picture just doesn't do the recipe justice. I'm sure someone could take a more glorious picture of these, but you should trust me and try them! These sandwiches are perfect for so many reasons and especially because they only have 5 ingredients. The combination of the havarti cheese and seasoned steak and onions pairs perfectly. I feel like you can't go wrong feeding this sandwich to any man in your life.
Steak Sammies
Serves 2
Recipe Notes
I have tried these sandwiches with both new york strip steak and ribeye. I personally go for whatever is on sale and I am sure they would be just as delicious with another type of steak. If you have a thin piece of steak, you can even skip the slicing step and use a whole piece of steak on your sammies. It is important to let the onions cook in the balsamic vinegar for awhile, but if the edges start to turn black, turn down the heat. Make sure you let the steak come to room temperature before grilling for best cooking results.

Olive Oil
1 white onion thinly sliced
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

2. Add onions and balsamic vinegar and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
