Prep Time10 minutes

Total Time15 minutes
Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients

  • 2.5 oz baguette or French bread
  • 3 oz cooked roast beef
  • 1/2 cup baby arugula (also known as rocket)
  • 1/4 oz shaved Parmesan
  • Fresh cracked pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Start by slicing your baguette or French bread in half lengthwise. If you prefer a toasted sandwich, you can also cut it into smaller pieces for easier handling.
  • Place the cooked roast beef evenly on the bottom half of the bread. The amount should be around 3 oz, but feel free to adjust based on your appetite!
  • Next, generously pile on the baby arugula. This adds a fresh, peppery flavor that balances the richness of the beef.
  • Sprinkle the shaved Parmesan over the arugula. This will melt slightly if you choose to toast the sandwich, adding a creamy texture.
  • Finish off with a sprinkle of fresh cracked pepper to enhance the flavors. You can adjust the amount based on your preference.
  • Place the top half of the bread on your sandwich. If desired, you can grill or toast the entire sandwich for a warm, crispy finish.
  • Cut the sandwich into manageable pieces and serve immediately. Enjoy your Roast Beef Sandwich with Arugula and Shaved Parmesan paired with a side salad or crunchy chips for a perfect meal!
