For a very long time I have been trying to figure out what I can do with my favorite cheese. Smoke Gouda. I do make simple grilled cheese sandwiches with it, but I wanted something new and more. So, I thought of this wonderfully tasty sandwich while I was cleaning my house after the holidays. I was surprise on how good it really was!
I hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients:
1 T Worcestshire sauce
1/4 tsp celery salt
1/4 c onion (about)
1 c Deli Roast Beef (about)
1 packet of Splenda (not pictured below)
1 T Mayo
1/2 tsp Fresh Basil, finely chopped
1 Slice Smoked Gouda
1 Ciabatta roll
This is a one sandwich recipe, but of course if you are making it for more people, then of course just double or triple the recipe.
Splenda is not pictured, I forgot to add it to the picture. =D
I like to cut up my Roast beef instead of leaving it in slices, but you can if you would like.
Add the Worcestshire sauce, celery salt and Splenda to a frying pan, mix, then add the onions and roast beef. Cook on medium or high until the the roast beef becomes wrinkled. I usually cook of the liquid and then once it is all gone, remove from heat.
Mix mayo and basil together in a small bowl. (I do like a little more mayo then the rest of my family, so it also goes on taste. Play with this portion to the likes of the people eating it.)
Add a thin slice of smoked Gouda. Heat in oven at 350 degrees. The cheese will not melt quickly. It does take awhile for this type of cheese to melt, I pretty much just really warmed it.
Add the mayo and basil to the top of the Ciabatta roll.
Add the two together and enjoy!
You can taste the sweetness from the Splenda and the just a like tang from the Worcestshire sauce in the roast beef and the smokey goodness of the Gouda. Mmmm! =D
***Just wanted to let you know that I had tried to make 4 sandwiches and so I added more Worcestershire sauce to the recipe to accommodate the more beef, it turned out horrible. Please be careful with adding extra sauce to it. And DO NOT substitute the basil for Italian seasoning, HORRIBLE.....lol (1/9/2012)***
