đź’•đź’• Supper Tonight For My Family đź’•đź’•

Tonight’s dinner was an absolute crowd-pleaser! I made a Copycat Arby’s Roast Beef and Cheddar, paired with crispy Curly Fries, a Copycat McDonald’s McRib, and finished everything off with a sweet and creamy Edwards Cookies and Cream Pie for dessert. It was a perfect meal for a Wednesday night, and the family absolutely loved it! Here’s how I made everything:

❤ Happy Wednesday! ❤


Roast Beef and Cheddar (Copycat Arby’s)

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb deli roast beef (thinly sliced)
  • 1 can beef broth (15 oz)
  • 1 packet onion soup mix
  • 4 sandwich buns (like brioche or regular hamburger buns)
  • 1 cup cheese sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • BBQ sauce (your favorite kind)

Instructions:

  1. In a medium-sized pot, combine the beef broth and onion soup mix. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
  2. Once the broth comes to a boil, remove the pot from the heat and add the deli roast beef. Stir well to ensure the beef is coated with the broth, then let it sit for 5-10 minutes to warm up and absorb the flavor.
  3. While the beef is warming, lightly toast your sandwich buns in the oven or on a grill until they are slightly crispy.
  4. To assemble, layer the warm roast beef onto each toasted bun. Add a generous drizzle of cheese sauce over the beef and then top it with BBQ sauce for that extra kick.
  5. Serve the sandwiches hot, alongside your curly fries.

Curly Fries (Frozen Arby’s-Style)

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag of frozen curly fries (Arby’s-style, or your favorite brand)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the frozen fries package (typically around 425°F or 220°C).
  2. Spread the frozen curly fries in an even layer on a baking sheet.
  3. Bake according to the package instructions, usually for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through for extra crispiness.
  4. Once the fries are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and serve immediately with your Roast Beef and Cheddar sandwiches.

McRib Copycat Sandwich

Ingredients:

  • 1 tray of On-Cor rib patties (or your favorite frozen rib patties)
  • 4 sub rolls or sandwich buns (long and soft)
  • Pickles (about 4-5 slices per sandwich)
  • Sliced onions (optional, but adds a nice flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Cook the On-Cor rib patties according to the package instructions (typically in the microwave or oven).
  2. While the ribs are heating up, slice the sandwich rolls and lightly toast them in the oven or on a grill.
  3. Once the rib patties are cooked, place one rib patty on each toasted roll.
  4. Top the rib patty with a few slices of pickles and onions (optional). These toppings add that classic McRib flavor.
  5. Serve the sandwiches immediately for a quick, tasty meal!

Edwards Cookies and Cream Pie (Store-Bought)

For dessert, I kept it simple and delicious with a store-bought Edwards Cookies and Cream Pie. It’s creamy and filled with chunks of chocolate cookies, making it the perfect sweet treat to end the meal. You can find it in the frozen section at your local grocery store, and it’s a big hit with the whole family!


Q&A Section:

Q: Can I make the cheese sauce for the Roast Beef and Cheddar sandwich at home?
A: Yes, you can! To make a quick homemade cheese sauce, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan, then whisk in 2 tablespoons of flour to make a roux. Gradually add 1 cup of milk, whisking constantly, until it thickens. Once thickened, stir in 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese until smooth. Pour over your roast beef for that perfect cheesy flavor!

Q: Can I make the McRib with fresh ribs instead of frozen patties?
A: Absolutely! You can substitute the frozen rib patties with freshly cooked ribs. Just heat up the ribs, shred them, and place them on the sandwich buns with the pickles and onions. Add your favorite BBQ sauce for that signature McRib flavor.

Q: How do I make the fries crispier?
A: To get extra crispy fries, make sure to flip them halfway through baking, and don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. This allows the fries to cook evenly and get crispy on all sides.

Q: Can I use any type of bread for the Roast Beef and Cheddar?
A: While I recommend using soft sandwich buns (like brioche), you can also use other types of buns or even a hoagie roll. Just make sure they’re soft enough to hold all the layers of roast beef and cheese sauce without falling apart.

Q: Can I make the dessert at home instead of buying it?
A: Sure! If you want to make a homemade cookies and cream pie, you can mix crushed chocolate cookies (like Oreos) with a creamy filling made of whipped cream and cream cheese, then set it in a graham cracker crust. It’s easy and just as delicious!


This was such a fun and easy meal to make for my family. Everyone enjoyed the hearty sandwiches, crispy fries, and sweet dessert. I’ll definitely be making this again soon!
