Philly Beef Sandwiches

When I saw this recipe, I just knew I had to make it. Scott (and I for that matter) absolutely LOVE Philly sandwiches--with the exception of green peppers. Beef is good. Cheese is good. Onions and mushrooms are good. Put all of them together and you get yummy deliciousness!

To make this, you take the leftovers from the herbed beef roast, or you could just use some really good beef. I simmered the beef in a little bit of butter and wine to keep it moist. I also added wine tot he mushroom and onion mixture as I just love cooking with wine! It always seems to add just a little more flavor to it! It is obviously not necessary to the recipe if you don't have it on hand.

We served this with french fries and a salad and it made the perfect weeknight meal! 4/5 with ease...maybe just a tiny bit of tweaking to make it a 5!
