In spite of sounding a little like the “Love Actually” opening credits, if you really think about it, food is one of the things that can connect any human being. Whether it’s a recipe passed down from generation to generation, or one you ask your friend to share with you after a potluck, the act of gifting recipes and feeding your loved ones is a shared experience.
Now, before Billy Mack’s “Christmas Is All Around” miraculously starts playing, I’ll move on to one of my most recent food connections. Upon stumbling across my hometown’s community cookbook, I was greeted by a recipe submitted by a familiar name, Donna H., and after seeing the description “Recess Monitor” under her name, I realized she was the woman who took us outside to the playground from grades kindergarten through third.
This isn’t the first recipe I’ve received from my time in the school district. My journalism teacher’s taco dip remains one of my most prized graduation gifts. However, the blast from the past made Donna’s five-ingredient slow cooker dinner that much more special—though, the recipe shines pretty brightly on its own.
The Slow Cooked Stuffed Steak From My Community Cookbook
Donna submitted her Slow Cooked Stuffed Steak recipe, which might sound unassuming, but when you read the ingredients and instructions, you realize it may actually be a culinary masterpiece.
The steak is quite literally stuffed with prepared stuffing and rolled into It's pinwheels before heading to the slow cooker to be simmered in a savory soup mixture.
While you may have stuffed your chicken breasts and pork chops before, adding stuffing to your juicy steak might be a new concept. However, after tasting the tender steak filled with buttery, seasoned stuffing and topped with mushrooms and a mushroom soup gravy, you might never stuff another meat dish again.
Plus, making it in the slow cooker means the steak becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender with the beefy onion soup and mushroom soup flavors throughout. You won’t truly understand the recipe’s perfection until you read it, and make it yourself. So here’s how to make my elementary school recess monitor’s simple five-ingredient slow cooker supper.
