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.

Notes

  • Warm steak in a skillet instead of the microwave so it stays tender.
  • Slice steak thin for the best texture.
  • Use sturdy French rolls, ciabatta, or hoagie rolls.
  • Swap gorgonzola for provolone, Swiss, cheddar, or blue cheese.
  • Add grilled onions, sautéed mushrooms, roasted garlic, or a fried egg.
  • Store ingredients separately if making ahead. Assemble right before serving.
