Grilled Steak & Roasted Tomato Sandwiches

"This interesting combination of sophisticated flavors makes an excellent sandwich. What I love is the tomatoes can be roasted ahead, chilled, and brought back to room temp, making this a excellent take-your-lunch-to-work option. -- modified from Gourmet magazine, August 2007."
