A Simple Supper

I needed something quick and easy to cook one night last week, in order to avoid the temptation to call for a pizza!  I looked frantically through my freezer and all I could find meat wise were some ground sirloin patties.  In my fridge I found a red bell pepper, a small sweet onion, some grape tomatoes and some soy sauce…. and so, I thought “What the heck, I will just put them all together, along with some spices and see what happens!”  It turned out really well, very flavorful, similar to salisbury steak….and I was really glad I decided against the pizza :)

All measurements are approximate…

What you’ll need:

4 ground sirloin patties

Bell pepper (any color) thinly sliced

Onion, halved and thinly sliced

1 or 2 tbsp. Soy sauce

2 tsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. onion powder

1/4 tsp season salt

Pepper to taste (the more the better, in my humble opinion)

a handful of grape tomatoes, halved

2 tsp. olive oil

Put it all together:

Add olive oil to a large skillet and heat over med temp.  Season patties on both sides with all seasonings and half of the soy sauce.  Cover and cook until slightly pink in center, turning once.   Add sliced peppers and onions, and any other fresh veggies you may have on hand if you so desire…mushrooms would be perfect with this!   Add the remaining soy sauce, cover and cook until tender, approximately 10 minutes…..add the tomatoes during the last few minutes.   Serve the veggies over the patties…along with a salad or other greens.   If I weren’t doing the low carb thing, I would serve this with some sort of potatoes, such as the sweet potato fries in the photo I borrowed :)  Enjoy!

 Let me know if you try it….would love to hear what you think!  And please feel free to send me your own simple recipes to try…I will post them here!
