I make this all the time because it is so easy, delicious, and wallet friendly. It is a nice way to eat beef without all the fat. I always use Trader Joe's "michette rolls" which are like soft french rolls with a slightly sourdough taste, and I toast them so that they have a perfect little bit of crunch- try them if you have a TJ's nearby. I also like to add avocado and let the sauce thicken up a bit more than the recipe calls for. A wonderful meal!
