Flat Bread Sandwiches

If you look carefully at this picture, you'll see that a chunk is torn from the bread. This would be the result of my 3-year-old begging for a "taste" of every piece as I pulled these off the grill.
This was a really great way to use our leftover Rib-eyes from our 4th of July party. For our "flat bread" I just used my One Hour Bread Recipe and grilled them similarly to what I do for Grilled Pizzas.


Flat Bread Sandwiches

2 Rib-eye steaks, grilled medium
8 pieces flat bread
10 oz baby spinache
2 cups chopped cilantro
1 large tomato, chopped
Ranch or Bleu-cheese dressing
Salt and Pepper

Slice cold steaks thinly across the grain of the meat. Add meat and vegetables to folded flat bread. Drizzle salad dressing over all. Enjoy!

Simple Grilled Flat Bread

Olive Oil
Parchment Paper

When bread dough has been thoroughly kneaded and is ready to shape into loaves, instead divide into 8 equal pieces. Using your fingers or a small roller, flatten each piece of dough on a sheet of parchment paper to create 8 rounds. Each round should be about 1/4 in. thick. Lightly brush the tops with oil. Let the rounds sit at room temperature 5-10 minutes. While dough is resting, pre-heat grill to 400 F. Brush cooking grates clean. Work with 2-4 rounds at a time depending on what can fit onto your grill (mine fits two). Remove dough from parchment paper, place the dough on the cooking grate and grill with lid closed as much as possible, until the dough is well marked and slightly firm on the underside, about 2 minutes. Rotate as needed for even cooking. Flip dough and cook the other side for about 1 more minute. Dough should be cooked, but still soft.
