How to Make Roast Beef Sandwiches With Sun Dried Tomato Spread

Prepare the Sun-Dried Tomato Spread: Combine 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained), 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1 clove garlic (minced), 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Stir well and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
While the spread chills, prepare the roast beef: Slice 8 ounces of roast beef thinly. (You can use leftover roast beef or buy pre-sliced.)
Slice a large focaccia loaf in half horizontally.
Spread the chilled sun-dried tomato spread evenly on both halves of the focaccia.
Layer the roast beef on one half of the focaccia. Add any desired additional fillings (such as lettuce, tomato, onion etc.).
Top with the other focaccia half.
Cut the sandwich into wedges and serve immediately or pack for a picnic.
For an extra warm sandwich, bake it for 5-7 minutes in the preheated oven to melt cheeses or warm ingredients.
