    I sub the ground beef with thin sliced steak and I left out the noodles, lessen the liquid and used
    only one packet of Lipton’s French Onion soup mix. Thickened with a little corn starch. Took French
    Sub Rolls, butter and grilled till toasted and put Philly Cheese Steak mixture over them in a large
    (Italian) pasta/soup bowl and sprinkled shaved Parmesan on top. It was a hit!! Would not have been as good without your recipe, now it’s the hit in our family.
