Submitted by jessicafrye

"I love these types of sandwiches when I go to delis and restaurants. I found this recipe online in an article by a woman named Harriet Hodgson and had to put it on here. I altered the recipe slightly to make it just the way that I want to eat it! I haven't tried them but will be making them soon!"
