Cubed Steaks Parmigiana

IMG_4215 (800x533)

Their are certain pieces of the steer meat we get that I struggle finding what to do with. Cubed Steak happens to be one of those. Hubby was a little iffy when I told him I was making this, but to both of our surprise it wasn’t too bad. I just kept telling myself it was veal parmiginana. The only turn off to using cubed steak is the amount of grease it puts off. Even with a friend over she tried it and said it wasn’t as bad as when she heard the name either. Lesson of the day – don’t judge a book by it’s title. haha. Would I make it again? Maybe, but I’m still on the hunt of what else I can use cubed steak for.
