"I first tasted a memorable combination of roast beef and green chilies at a local cafe," writes Karen Ledbetter from Fort Collins, Colorado. "In this recipe, the chilies give the quick grilled sandwich a little bite. It's simple and delicious."

2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
10 slices rye bread
5 slices Swiss cheese
10 thin slices cooked roast beef
2 tablespoons butter, softened
Salsa, optional

Directions

In a small bowl,combine the chilies, mayonnaise and mustard; spread about 1 tablespoon on one side of each slice of bread. Top one side of each of five slices of bread with 1 slice of cheese and 2 slices of beef. Cover with remaining bread.
Butter the outsides of bread. In a skillet over medium heat, toast sandwiches for 4-5 minutes on each side or until bread is lightly browned and cheese is melted. Serve with salsa if desired.

Great combo of flavors. Great way to use up leftover pot roast.

These were good! I added extra roast beef - two slices for each sandwich didn't seem like enough - and I added another slice of Swiss before adding the second slice of bread to help the sandwich stick together a little better. Served it with tomato soup for a quick dinner...

Great sandwich! I use provolone cheese. This one is saved in my recipe box and I use it often.

These sandwiches are out of this world. They are worth trying and a trip to the store for the items you might not have on hand. YUMMY!
