Here is how this recipe turned out for me:
First off, I decided to use Roast Beef lunch meat instead of the sandwich steaks. I got this lunch meat at Aldi.
In went the peppers and onions! At first, I was nervous because when I took the package out of the freezer, it was smaller than I remembered and I was worried it wouldn't be enough; don't worry, I was wrong! There was plenty of filling by the time I was done...this just happens to be a large skillet! Also, I used olive oil instead of butter.
Because I decided to go with roast beef lunch meat instead of sandwich steaks, I didn't need to cook it, so I just sliced it up...
...and put it in the skillet! I realize you don't technically have to do this since the lunch meat is already fully cooked, and it's just going in the oven anyway, but I figured it would be a good way to mix it all together.
So I added some steak seasoning and mixed all the ingredients up.
Then I put it in the crescent dough (and had filling leftover...which will conveniently fit on some hotdog buns I need to use up) and braided it. A piece of advice, make sure you work quickly with the braiding of the dough - once the filling is in the dough it starts to get extra soft, making it harder to work with. Also, I only made one because it was just me and Hubby, but if you have a larger family, the peppers and onions coupon prints twice so you can make two!
Tada! Finished product! You may be wondering about the cheese slices on top. Well, I, being a dummy, totally forgot to put CHEESE in the CHEESE steak. What's wrong with me? I remembered once it was in the oven, partially baked, and there was no opening it up to put cheese in. I just slapped a couple of slices of provolone on top, which actually worked out pretty nicely!
Hope you enjoy!
