French Dip Sandwiches
French Dip Sandwiches consist of sliced deli-style roast beef simmered in a savory broth made with beef consomme and onion soup mix, served on French rolls spread with cream cheese and topped with melted provolone cheese. The sandwich is accompanied by a cup of the flavorful au jus broth for dipping. The melted cheese and creamy spread enhance the tender beef, while the dipping sauce adds moistness and additional richness to each bite.
