My sister in law's birthday was fast approaching and we were going to visit her and make her dinner. I tried to think of something to make for her (she's not a picky eater, she doesn't care what she eats, and that is a lot harder than making something for a picky eater!) Greg came across this recipe from Food Network (ala Sandra Lee) It looked really good so we decided to try it. We LOVED it! (well at least Greg and I did, the jury is still out on whether or not my sister in law and her husband did....they ate it, and seemed to enjoy it and did not run screaming from the table) It's super easy and very tasty. The Gravy was SOOOO good, and one of the best parts is that it is a pretty cheap meal! If you don't like mushrooms, don't add them, or pick them out. That is what I did :) Here is the recipe to try for yourself. If you taste it and like it let me know! If not, let me know. I like to hear what people think!
p.s. sorry the picture is so small.
