Ingredients
- 2 grilled steaks (we use leftover steak)
- 4 French sandwich rolls
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup fresh pesto
- 2 small red peppers cored, seeds removed, and sliced thin
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup gorgonzola cheese crumbles
- 1 cup spinach arugula lettuce mix
Instructions
- Combine the mayonnaise and pesto in a small bowl until well blended, then keep cold in the refrigerator.
- Slice the leftover steak and warm the slices in a small fry pan over the stove on medium heat. You don't need to overcook them, just warm them up, then remove from heat and onto a plate.
- In the same fry pan, add a little vegetable oil and the red pepper slices. Cook over medium heat until the red peppers begin to soften. Drizzle on some balsamic vinegar and cook a few more minutes, then remove from heat.
- Open the sandwich rolls and spread a layer of pesto mayo on both sides of the roll. Top the bottom slice with the warmed steak slices, gorgonzola cheese crumbles, sautéed red peppers, and lettuce mix. Add the top bun and serve. Makes 4 sandwiches.
