This is great! The roasted veggies were so good with the garlic mayo and gouda. I used a smoked gouda and omitted the salt. Thanks for sharing!

I spent the entire day out and hadn't eaten, so came home and made this sandwich and it was so good! I loved the flavors and the gouda cheese melted so nice. Thanks! Made for the IRON CHEF game.
