I made this sandwich as part of a picnic lunch for some friends several years ago and we still talk about it to this day. It does take some planning to get the spread ready but it's well worth it. There used to be sun-dried tomato cream cheese you could purchase, but I can't find it anymore. It was so good. I'm glad to have this recipe for homemade. It goes so well with the roast beef and focaccia!

I loved the spread. I used turkey instead of roast beef and I made my own focaccia bread. Bacon is really good on it also.
