in my sandwich that is!
First off – can we just give a BIG Congrats to all the lady marathoners today!? Epic race. I do feel bad for Desiree Davila because she had to pull with a hip flexor injury 
Confession: about 4 months ago was the first time I had ever had roast beef. I was always a turkey & chicken kind of gal when in game to my lunch meat. One night I decided to switch it up at my favorite sandwich spot and I was so glad I did! Not only does roast beef taste great, but it is a lean option when choosing red meat and has more iron than chicken and turkey! Iron can only benefit runners – healthy red blood cells allow for more oxygen to be transported to muscles during intense exercise, thus preventing fatigue! And I must say, roast beef taste pretty darn good!
Sautéed Spinach & Garlic Roast Beef Sandwich
Ingredients:
- 2 generous handfuls of spinach
- 1/2 tomato, sliced
- 2 slices of Boars Head London Broil Roast Beef
- 2 slices of bread (I used whole grain oatmeal by Pepperidge Farm)
- 1 Laughing Cow Garlic & Herb Cheese Wedge
- 2 TBSP of Part Skim Ricotta Cheese
Preparation:
- In a small skillet/pan, crank the dial to medium and lightly coat the pan with cooking spray/olive oil
- While the pan is heating, combine the ricotta & laughing cow cheese wedge. Feel free to add extra seasonings & spread onto two slices of bread
- Slice tomatoes.
- Once the pan is heated, add the spinach and saute for a couple minutes – until spinach is deep in color and a little wilted, but not dried out.
- Place spinach on one slice of bread.
- Top the spinach with the sliced tomatoes & roast beef.
- Place other slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich
- Enjoy
Now tell me – what is your favorite sandwich creation?
I haven’t had roast beef in a very long time but it looks delicious! I love sandwiches with a lot going on in them…YUM!

Beef, garlic and spinach sounds like an amazing sandwich combo! I think home-cooked ham and home made coleslaw on seeded bread is my favourite – but I’d be all over this one as well
The marathon was epic and I couldn’t believe how close it was in the end… the 100m was beyond epic as well, Bolt’s amazing!
Girl.. I don’t even like beef and you make that look good!
I love roast beef but only on the day it’s sliced – I can’t bring myself to eat it after that. Boar’s Head is good meat though!
You make the best sandwiches! You should make a sandwich (cook) book!
That looks delicious! My favorite sandwich is definitely sourdough, vermont white cheddar, caramelized onions and bacon. Grilled. It’s PERFECT.
I <3 your sandwiches!! My favorite is probably grilled cheese with avocado! And maybe some other fun toppings.
Hi Kailey! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comment
that sandwich looks delicious!! WOW. I’m am for sure making that this week. Thanks for sharing
This sandwich looks amazing! I used to stay far away from roast beef too, but I’m so glad I began incorporating it back into the mix last year. I find it much more satisfying than turkey/chicken, and the flavor is amazing.
My all-time favorite sandwich is a turkey pesto panini with muenster cheese and tomatoes. I also LOVE classic grilled cheese!
Confession: 3 Christmases ago was my first time trying roast beef back in Kansas when my mother in law made it for us! (back them, not yet MOH)
It was amaaazing….and now I eat it from time to time because the people at our church make something like it really often.
I love grilled chicken sandwiches! and laughing cow wedges are the best! love the queso ones spread on the sandwich
laughing cow wedges are one of my most favorite products EVER.
also that sandwich is amazing!
I don’t eat meat, but I still love sandwiches! Veggie packed are my fave, preferably with a really good bread and a delicious spread or dressing, like cilantro hummus!
I love roast beef on sandwiches too – especially paired with Dijon mustard!
But my all time favourite sandwich combo is turkey, avocado, tomato, lettuce and mustard. So simple, but so tasty!
Yummy looking sandwich. It’s looks so melty and tasty.
that sandwich looks sooooo good!
I love roasted beef, it has so much more flavor than the old chicken/ turkey sandvich!
Roast beef kinda freaks me out, but maybe it’s time I delve back into its slightly scary waters.
My all time favourite sandwich is tuna, avocado, beetroot, carrot and spinach on a nice grain breast, TOASTED
Roast beef with some au jus for a French Dip sandwich is absolutely delish! But you must stock up on the good stuff
Your recipe sounds so tasty!
I’m a sliced turkey lover but a nice roast beef sandwich, if prepped right like yours, can be delicious.
I missed the marathon (no thanks to a 5am wake-up call) but it’s waiting for me on my On Demand…so excited!
I love laughing cow cheese!! and sandwhiches in general! My fav combo as of lately is turkey with swiss cheese laughing cow, spinach, cukes and honey mustard!! so yummy
I love sandwiches that are packed full of veggies…so packed I almost can’t even bite it! YUM!
I don’t eat roast beef as often as turkey and chicken, but it is a welcome change when I switch it up! Glad you tried it and liked it
This obviously looks amazing, as does every sandwhich you post… yum!
I don’t even eat meat but this sandwich is gorgeous!
My favorite sandwiches are hummus + roasted veggies and classic PB (or almond butter) and jelly. Yum! <3
This sounds amazing! I just bought roast beef at TJ’s too because it looked so good to me! Might just have to try this!
This looks delicious. I usually don’t eat a lot of beef, but I shall give this a try. One of my favorite sandwich toppings is avocado drizzled with some fresh lemon juice. And if I’m feeling really creative I like making a simple PB+J!
I generally reach for turkey or chicken. I really can’t even remember the last time I had roast beef! Sandwich looks great though!
You seriously love sandwiches. I LOVE it. lol. I think that a good sandwich is dependent on the bread that it’s made on. It can make or break it. I try to go to the farmer’s market and get one every weekend. I got a multi grain on Sunday, just toasted it and put some roasted red pepper hummus, avocado, tomato and cucumber. It was delicious.
Nothing beats a nice grilled sandwich though.
I’ve never had roast beef! I’ve actually been thinking of picking some up the past couple grocery store visits, but now I’m sold. Guess I know what I’m having for lunch today!
My fave sandwich creation….ok so I see your and Shannon’s tweets about Baker’s Crust, I went there ALL the time when I was at W&M and I loved their chicken/mozz/pesto/tomato/spinach sandwich – always asked for it on a toasted baguette nom nom nom
I’m always choosing turkey or chicken too, but will have to keep roast beef in mind for next time
Your sandwiches always look so tasty!!
Those plates are so cute!
Not a beef eater but this sandwich does sound yum! I love the pesto, basil, tomato, chevre and turkey combo on sandwiches…mm craving one now!
You’ve got me salivating for roast beef right now! It used to be my absolute favorite lunch meat but I’ve had to stay away from red meat ever since I found out I had high cholesterol
Yum, this looks delicious!!
You are the queen of sandwiches.. But I don’t eat meat.
I’d love some ideas for vegetarian ones, if you have any! 
I am not sure what my favorite sandwich combo is! Weird I know but I guess PB + Honey + Banana grilled or Tomato + Fresh Mozzarella + pesto ???
I have to admit I think I have only had roast beef a couple times in my life. I will have to give it another chance. My all time favorite sandwich (and food) is a good BLT. Who doesn’t love bacon??
I am just now getting into meat after like a 10 year hiatus. I need to start discovering new types like roast beef.
I don’t really eat sandwiches but I love grilled chicken, avocado, tomato, sprouts and worchestor sauce
I could probably use some more iron in my diet since I don’t eat red meat often, so I’ll have to pick up some roast beef next grocery trip!
I’m not much for roast beef myself, but this looks yummy! I’ll have to try it. Thanks.
My favorite, favorite sandwich is Caprese. Fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced tomatoes, a few basil leaves, ciabatta bread, and drizzles of high quality EVOO and balsamic vinegar. Definitely not protein-packed like roast beef, but I could eat this sandwich combination forever and not get bored.
I am a recent Roast Beef convert too! I can’t believe I missed out on such a tasty meat option for so long! I guess that means we have to make up for lost time
