Don't let the cheeky name fool you! "Shit on a Shingle," or SOS, is a comforting and surprisingly delicious classic. This recipe for Creamed Chipped Beef on Toast is a budget-friendly, quick, and satisfying meal perfect for busy weeknights. We're talking tender, thinly sliced dried beef simmered in a creamy, savory white sauce, served piping hot over crispy toast.
Forget fancy ingredients! This recipe relies on pantry staples. You'll need dried chipped beef (easily found in most grocery stores), butter, flour, milk, and some seasonings. The key to a great SOS is not overcooking the beef, which can make it tough. Simmer it gently in the creamy sauce until heated through. Serve it immediately on your favorite toast – white, wheat, or even sourdough work well. Looking to jazz it up? Add a dash of hot sauce or some chopped chives for extra flavor. Trust me, this humble dish is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser (even if they chuckle at the name!). Enjoy!
