Week 4 Meal - In Wisconsin

So to start out after a few little mishaps we finally had this meal tonight and it was well worth the wait! These Flank Steak Naan Bread Wraps are delicious and I want to personally thank Ellie from Home Cooking Montana for allowing us to use this recipe. To go along with the wraps I also made green beans, cheesy potato wedges (also from Ellie's blog), and sauteed mushrooms.

Now for the mishaps. Living in such a small is proving to be difficult to make certain meals. For example I was unable to find flank steak so we had to use sirloin. When I went to get everything on Sunday the store was also out of cilantro, this is not the first time that the store has been out of cilantro here. For some reason my first time of making the Naan Bread was not successful. It didn't rise correctly and I couldn't get it to roll out right. My second time of doing this was much more successful though. This recipe does take a little extra time just because of making the bread, but it is well worth it to have the homemade bread. We are planning on making up more of the bread to use for wrapping other things (hubby wants to try teriyaki chicken). The boys all loved it, and I think my husband was in love from the first bite. For the steak marinade I rubbed it with garlic, then olive oil and then put the remaining pesto for the sauce on both sides. All together actually preparing time, not time waiting for bread to do rise was about an hour.
