Manly Meals for Father’s Day

Unless your dad is a vegetarian or on a restricted diet, he’d probably enjoy dining on a thick, juicy T-bone rather than a garden salad on Father’s Day.

Serve your dad a succulent meaty meal this weekend, with help from the following recipes:

1/2 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
