8 Easy Meals to Make with Sandwich Steaks

It does not matter to me if they are Steak - Umms, Quaker Maid or Blue Diamond brand sandwich steaks, they are always a staple in my house. I can always find a quick easy meal to prepare with sandwich steaks, even if I just fry up a few with some eggs and toast. Sandwich steaks can be fried or microwaved, and it only takes about a minute to cook them. Sandwich Steaks are made of 100% all beef, they are thinly sliced and frozen. You can find them in the frozen food section at the market. Here are 8 of my favorite meals to make with sandwich steaks.

1) Philly Cheese Steak sandwich, which of course the most popular way to prepare sandwich steaks.

I like to make mine with onions, green bell peppers and mushrooms, which I cook in one frying pan, and in the other frying pan I add broken strips of the steak, meantime I heat up some tomato sauce. Once the meat is done I put it in a hoagie roll and add my veggies, then I put some sauce on it, and top with mozzarella cheese. I pop it in the microwave to melt the cheese.

The nice thing about a steak sandwich is you can use whatever you have on hand, even hotdog buns in place of the hoagie roll. Just be creative and have fun with it.

2) Steak - Umm Pizza. Here I just make my pizza as usual, and I brown the broken up sandwich steaks slightly, I also add green bell pepper and Ricotta cheese to my pizza. Once I put the steak on I sprinkle the pizza with hot sauce and pop it into the oven. This is one tasty pizza!

3) Steak - Umm Quesadillas. These can be made on a griddle, frying pan and a George Forman grill.

I usually make the small Quesadillas, but you can use a bigger size if you want to. First I like to break my sandwich steak up and let it thaw out a bit, as it will cook better in the Quesadilla. I also like to slice up cherry tomatoes, and green bell pepper. If possible I use both mozzarella cheese and pepper jack cheese, and I sprinkle a little hot sauce on the meat. I make a few different varieties of them as well, I use whatever I have on hand.

4) Steak - Umms with Ramen noodles. I like to jazz up my noodles with sandwich steaks, and top with whatever cheese I have on hand. This is a really quick and easy meal.

5) BBQ sandwich steak on a hoagie or hotdog roll. For this I slice up a good size onion and fry till tender, then I add the broken up sandwich steaks, cook till a little pink, add the BBQ sauce and heat till hot, warm the rolls and fill with the mixture, sometimes I top my sandwich with cheese as well.

6) Steak -Umm wraps. I use flour tortillas and salsa. All you need for this is the sandwich steak, broken up and lightly browned, salsa and cheese of your choice. Toss the meat and salsa tighter place on the tortilla, top with cheese, roll it up, and microwave about 1 minute.

7) Sandwich Steak Reuben's. I brown 3 slices of steak and toast 2 slices of rye bread, and I heat a little sauerkraut in the microwave. I spread Russian dressing on both slice of toast and then put the meat on, followed by the sauerkraut, and 2 slices of swiss cheese. This is the quick way, other times I will make the sandwich in a frying pan.

8) Steak sandwich. For this sandwich I use a sandwich maker machine. All you need are 2 slices steak broken in half and placed on buttered bread. The buttered side down, then just top the the steak with whatever cheese you have on hand, also if you have any tomato sauce, you can add that as well, then top with another slice of buttered bread and close the machine, cook for about 3 minutes.

I almost forgot sandwich steaks are great on croissants ! Just fry the steak, and place on the croissant, add cheese and heat about 20 seconds in the microwave.
