Ingredients

  • 2 Slices of Pumpernickel Bread
  • 1 Deli Slice of Provolone
  • 2 ounces Roast Beef
  • 1/2 cup Simple Slaw
  • 2 Slices of Tomato

Instructions

  • First, you have to make the simple slaw. The link to the simple slaw recipe is in the post. You'll combine 3 cups shredded cabbage in a bowl with 4 tsp. rice vinegar, 1/3 cup light mayo, 1/12 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Mix well. Cover; let sit in the refrigerator for 1/2 hour before using.
  • Layer all ingredients between two slices of pumpernickel bread. Cut down the center. Eat immediately.

Notes

  • Tip: Use your hand to collect 3 dashes of salt from a shaker. That is the amount recommended to flavor the slaw.
  • Tip: If you buy pre-packaged cabbage to use for the slaw, your prep-time decreases to 2 minutes!
