This bistro-inspired sandwich features deli-sliced roast beef, melted Swiss cheese, grilled peppers and onions and a signature peppercorn Parmesan mayonnaise layered on buttery toasted focaccia bread.

Why Try? Incredibly easy to make; incredibly delicious to eat—this indulgent bistro sandwich takes deli sliced roast beef & Swiss to a whole new flavor destination.

Foodie Byte: Get creative, this sandwich also tastes great prepared with left-over sliced steak, grilled chicken, or grocery store-purchased rotisserie chicken.

For added convenience, use frozen stir fried peppers and onions, such as Birds Eye® Pepper Stir-Fry, pan sautéed in scant olive oil until all moisture has evaporated.
