Final Assembly and Serving
Swap the provolone for Swiss, sharp white cheddar, Gruyère, or Havarti cheese.
Use other sturdy, crusty breads like a French baguette, sourdough slices, or kaiser rolls.
Add sautéed mushrooms, roasted red peppers, or banana peppers for extra flavor and texture.
For a smoky kick, add 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika to the horseradish sauce. For a bit of heat, add a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
The roast beef provides a significant amount of high-quality protein, which is essential for building and repairing tissues, supporting muscle mass, and maintaining overall body function.
Beef is a prime source of heme iron, which is easily absorbed by the body and helps prevent anemia. It's also packed with B vitamins, particularly B12 and B6, crucial for energy production and a healthy nervous system.
Each sandwich contains approximately 750-850 calories, depending on the specific brands of ingredients used, the size of the roll, and the amount of sauce.
This sandwich is a hearty and indulgent meal, high in protein and flavor. However, it is also high in calories, sodium, and saturated fat. It's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. To make it healthier, you could use a whole wheat roll, reduce the amount of cheese and mayonnaise, and serve it with a side salad.
A high-quality, thinly sliced deli roast beef works best. Top round or bottom round cuts are common and delicious. Ask your deli counter for a lean cut sliced paper-thin for the most tender sandwich.
This sandwich pairs well with classic deli sides like potato chips, a dill pickle spear, coleslaw, or a simple green salad with a vinaigrette dressing.
The components can be prepared ahead. The horseradish sauce and caramelized onions can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in airtight containers in the refrigerator. However, the sandwich should be assembled and broiled just before serving to prevent it from becoming soggy.
Leftover sandwiches can be wrapped tightly in foil and refrigerated for up to 2 days. To reheat, place the foil-wrapped sandwich in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through. Reheating in a microwave is not recommended as it can make the bread tough and soggy.
