This was a unique recipe for leftover roast beef but it was really delicious. I substituted green olives for capers and added fresh chopped tomatoes and yellow peppers. I stuffed it into pitas for a light supper … Chips on the side. I’d top with some shredded cheese next time too. Will definitely make it again.
