Recipe Time: PW Cooks

I know I've raved about Pioneer Woman's recipes before (along with Torrie), but last night was different. I went all out, PW style, sort of.

I saw her recipe for onion strings, and had to have them. But what to make with them?? That was where it all began. While I was in Utah a couple of weeks ago, my sister and I ate lunch up on the Mountain at Park City. We got a Chipotle Steak Sandwich. It was so good. It was a hogie bun with a tasty piece of meat with chipotle sauce, piled with onion strings. I've been craving it ever since. So, when I saw this simple recipe for the onion strings - I thought I'd give it a try, sort of. I've made Marlboro Man's Favorite Sandwich a couple of times and it was delish (if you haven't made it, you really should!), and figured I would start there. Anyway, I know this is getting to be a long post, so here's the basics of what I did:

Marlboro Man's Favorite Sandwich - minus the onions, plus a few extras
Onion Strings - exactly as said

We put mozzarella cheese on the sandwich with the onion strings and even a little lettuce. I was so stinkin full, but I kept eating, because here's the kicker - I made that dessert. You know, the one Torrie was raving about. Holy crap, that was good - I had myself another helping of it tonight.

While I was dreaming up the plans of this fabulous meal, I knew my little family wouldn't be able to eat it all (nor would the kids appreciate it) so we had my high school bff, Anna, and her troops come over and eat some grub with us. The meal was a success.

So . . . . any of you wanting to try it, have some friends over and make a night of it. I promise, you won't be sorry. You'll just need to go run a few miles when your finished stuffing yourself!!
