Great steak sammie! I made my own croissants and I also added provolone cheese. These were a very filling dinner and super easy to make. Thanks Lazyme for an awesome dinner!

Made these for dinner last night with some leftover flank steak and they were outstanding. I love steak with mushrooms and onions so I knew I couldn't go wrong with this recipe. The horseradish gives it that extra kick and my husband loved it. The croissants I got from a local bakery were a perfect buttery accompaniment. Thanks for such a great recipe!
