Ingredients
Scale
- 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 3 teaspoons olive oil
- kosher salt and pepper
- 3 cup torn green leaf lettuce
- 1 (16-oz) loaf of soft Italian bread, sliced in half horizontally
- 1 pound deli-sliced roast beef
- 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
- 1 large tomatoes, sliced
- 10 fresh basil leaves
Instructions
- Whisk the vinegar, Italian seasoning, and olive oil in a large bowl. Place the lettuce in the bowl, season it with a couple pinches of salt and pepper, and gently toss it to coat it evenly with the dressing.
- Place the lettuce on the bottom half of the bread. Top the lettuce with the roast beef, followed by the mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil. Spring a few pinches of salt over the top of the basil and tomatoes.
- Place the top half of the bread on top of the sandwich. Slice the sandwich into eight smaller sandwiches and serve.
Notes
- I bought a large loaf of bread in the bakery section at my grocery store for this recipe. I think this sandwich works best with a soft loaf, instead of one with a chewy crust, so look for something similar where you shop.
