Open Faced Tri Tip Bruschetta

Ingredients

  • 2 lb. Harris Ranch beef tri tip grilled
  • 4 crusty 6" rolls split
  • 1/3 cup prepared Italian dressing
  • 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cups pre-washed fresh spinach leaves
  • 1 large tomato chopped
  • 1/3 cup sliced fresh basil

Instructions

  1. Grill tri tip and let stand.
  2. While tri tip is resting, lightly brush cut sides of rolls with prepared dressing. Place rolls (cut side down) under oven broiler for 1 to 2 minutes or until golden brown. Turn rolls; sprinkle with cheese. Broil 1 to 2 more minutes or until cheese just begins to melt.
  3. While bread is heating, combine spinach, tomato and basil; toss. Remove rolls from oven and place an equal amount of the mixture on each roll half. Carve heated tri tip across the grain into thin (1/4") slices; arrange beef on spinach mixture. Serve open face.
