Creamy Italian Pinwheel Steaks

This is another recipe from my trip to the Cape a few weeks back.  Another yummy recipe that Beth found in our new favorite cookbook.  Slowly but surely, I’m getting this posted up for you guys!

And, I’m learning about Jenny Craig exchanges… so soon I’ll be able to give you my best guess at exchanges on these recipes!  Woo hoo!  Until then… feast your eyes on this tasty dish!

We paired our yummy steak with roasted brussels sprouts, simply seasoned with cooking spray, salt, and pepper.  Yum, Yum!
