Simple Fare, Fairly Simple

This recipe turned out to be a hit. I have one guy in the fam who's not a sour cream lover and another one who is not a mushroom fan...and this recipe has both....and both of the guys LOVED it! We love flank steak so I'm always looking for ways to use it and this recipe was the perfect thing! You could use a London broil if you want, as well. Both of my guys gave me a big "thumbs up" and told me this dish was a winner!! Yay!!!
