Some nights you want something that feels a little special without turning into a whole production. This is one of those dinners. Steak, crispy parmesan asparagus, and those Texas Roadhouse rolls that honestly make the meal on their own.
This is the kind of meal I make when I want real food, not something complicated. Nothing fancy, nothing trendy, just solid comfort food that feels like you tried without actually stressing yourself out. It’s also perfect for a stay in date night or an easy weekend dinner when you don’t feel like going out.
Simple ingredients, minimal prep, and everything comes together quickly. That’s my favorite kind of recipe.
