- Recipe: Keeping up Cookbook: Sjoblom's French Dips
This recipe is a dream. It takes literally 5 minutes to toss all of the ingredients into the crock pot, leaving me ample time to clean, play or rest with the kids.
I love the flavor and simplicity of the dish. I used large hoagie buns, but looking back I would use sandwich buns in the future. One bun was almost too much food for me and even my husband was too full for seconds. The smell is delicious and having that fill your home will make it taste even sweeter.
So give it a try!
