Grass-Fed Beef Sandwiches with Caramelized Onions, Horseradish Cream & Arugula
If you want a great beef sandwich with a twist, this is a must! The grass-fed, organic beef makes this recipe a whole lot healthier than traditional beef sandwiches. And if you have the time make your own crème fraiche ahead of time (it will take you all of two minutes). Not only is it healthier but you will save at the checkout. The tangy, yet spicy crème fraiche, paired with the spicy arugula and sweet caramelized onions is absolutely delish! Any guy will love this dish. You can prepare this in about 10 minutes.
