MINI CHICKEN CHEESESTEAKS

A part of being married is learning to love what your other half loves. Or at least try. Whether it’s basketball, Storage Wars, or Philly cheesesteaks. I don’t think I ever had a Philly cheesesteak before I was married

but ever since I’ve had a whole lot of them. When we go to a restaurant I can almost predict that my husband will order a Philly cheesesteak or something Buffalo flavored, which is why I also have so many Buffalo recipes on this blog.

But since marriage is also about compromise, I made a more girly version of the Philly classic. These chicken cheesesteaks still have peppers, onions, mushrooms, and cheese but use chicken which I always have on hand.

I’m embarrassed to say that I ate two of these for lunch and three for dinner. It wasn’t my finest moment.
