Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Rye bread (or preferred sandwich bread)
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 12 ounces Deli-style roast beef
- 8 slices Sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Arugula or baby spinach
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 4 slices Pickles (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until well combined. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Place half of the bread slices, buttered side down, onto the heated skillet or griddle.
Top each slice with 3 ounces of roast beef, 2 slices of cheddar cheese, a few slices of red onion, and a handful of arugula or baby spinach.
Spread a thin layer of the mustard-mayo mixture onto the unbuttered side of the remaining bread slices, then place them on top of the sandwiches with the buttered side facing up.
Cook the sandwiches for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing them lightly with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing them in half.
Serve warm, optionally with pickle slices on the side, and enjoy!
