Mini French Dips are small but mighty sandwiches that are full of flavor and are so simple to put together. 💛
The recipe is below ⬇️

2 lbs roast beef
8 slices of Swiss cheese
1 pack of 8 hotdog buns
1 brown gravy packet
1 cup beef broth ( I use bouillon)
1 Au Jus packet

Mix together brown gravy and the beef broth then roll your roast beef slices and place in the gravy mix.
On a griddle lay flat your hot dog buns and let them toast on low heat. Turn over then add cheese.
(If you’re making fries, I HIGHLY recommend Kinder’s Garlic Fries 👏, be sure to have them be the first things you get going so everything finishes at the same time. )
Once cheese starts to melt add your beef (slices per sandwich at least)
Let sit on low while you prepare your au jus.
Just pour the packet into the gravy mix and add a cup of water. Stir together.

Serve and enjoy! 😊
