Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces Roast beef, low sodium
- 8 slices Whole grain bread, low sodium
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 sliced Tomato, medium
- 0.25 thinly sliced Red onion
- 4 tablespoons Horseradish sauce, low sodium
- 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard, low sodium
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing your work area with the ingredients close by. Make sure you have a cutting board and a sharp knife on hand.
Begin by slicing the medium tomato into thin slices and set aside.
Peel and thinly slice 1/4 of a red onion. You want the slices to be very thin for optimal flavor without overwhelming the sandwich.
Lay out 8 slices of whole grain, low sodium bread on a clean preparation area.
Spread 1 tablespoon of low sodium horseradish sauce evenly on 4 of the bread slices.
Spread 1 teaspoon of low sodium Dijon mustard on the other 4 slices of bread.
Evenly distribute the 8 ounces of low sodium roast beef across the 4 slices of bread with horseradish sauce.
On top of the roast beef, layer a lettuce leaf, followed by a few slices of the prepared tomato.
Add some slices of red onion to each sandwich. Use your preference on onion quantity to control the level of sharpness.
Sprinkle a dash of black pepper over the toppings on each sandwich for added flavor.
Close the sandwiches with the remaining slices of bread, mustard side down.
Serve immediately or wrap each sandwich in parchment paper for an easy on-the-go meal.
