1. Begin by preparing the sandwich spread. In a small bowl, combine the non-fat Greek yogurt with the Dijon mustard. Stir well to ensure the mustard is fully incorporated into the yogurt. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Slice the sandwich thin rolls in half and lightly toast them, if desired, for a bit of extra texture and flavor.
3. Prepare the fresh vegetables: wash and dry two pieces of romaine lettuce, slice the tomato, and thinly slice the red onion.
4. To assemble the sandwiches, spread about a tablespoon of the yogurt-mustard mix on each half of the toasted rolls.
5. Layer one piece of lettuce on each bottom half of the roll.
6. Divide the roast beef equally between the two sandwiches, placing 2 ounces on each.
7. Add slices of tomato and a few slivers of red onion to each sandwich for crunch and freshness.
8. Top each sandwich with the upper half of the roll, pressing down gently.
9. Cut each sandwich in half or enjoy them whole as per your preference. Serve immediately.
