I found in the freezer…6 eye of round steaks…that I bought back in early September. The beautiful part is that I bought 6 eye of round steaks for just over $2! They came in 2 packages, each with 3 steaks and each just over $2. I used a $2 coupon for Private Selection beef from a Kroger mailer.

Can’t beat 6 eye of round steaks for just over $2!!!

I wanted to make a swiss steak…and had mushrooms on hand too, so…

HELLO. Mushroom Swiss Steak. It’s nice to meet you!

You might be my new favorite meal!!!

    Swiss steak is one of my favorites. I have never tried making it with mushrooms before, but I am sure my husband would welcome the addition!
