My life is pretty predictable these days. I’m usually either at work, daycare, or home during the week. If it’s the weekend, throw in places like the grocery store and church. But despite being predictable, how is it that I feel like I don’t have enough time to get everything I want done? That’s when I look for meals that can be made in advance so I can at least have meals taken care of. These Italian Beef Sliders made for a great meal we had recently and saved me a lot of time. Slow cooked beef is sliced thin and left to simmer in a flavorful broth for hours, then stuffed into soft slider rolls and topped with cheese. If this doesn’t make you hungry, at least think about how much time you’ll save from slaving in the kitchen to make this!…
