This recipe for hearty roast beef and brie sandwiches is a sensational flavor combination!

Ingredients

Scale
  • One loaf french bread
  • 1/2 pound rare roast beef, sliced very thin
  • 1/2 pound Brie cheese
  • Romaine lettuce leaves
  • Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Split the loaf of bread down the middle and spread one or both sides with mustard, depending on how much of a mustard-lover you are.
  2. Layer the roast beef on the bottom of the loaf, top with slices of Brie and then lettuce. Place top of loaf on sandwich. Cut into as many sandwiches sections as you like!  We usually go for four.

Notes

  • Roast Beef: This is the time to get roast beef from the deli counter (as opposed to the pre-packaged kind). Ask for it to be thin sliced (and if you are lucky they will give you a sample!
  • Bread: We like to use a French bread baguette from the bakery department but the larger size Italian bread will work as well if you want a heartier sandwich. One way or the other, pick up the bread the same day you are going to make the sandwich for maximum freshness.
  • Brie Cheese: Brie is a soft, creamy, spreadable cheese that is made from cow’s milk, and it comes in flavors that range from mild to more intense. It has a soft white rind which you can either leave on or slice off. You can swap out Camembert cheese for the Brie if you prefer.
  • Lettuce: Any kind will work…our favorite is Romaine for the crunch and the flavor.
