I came up with this idea after I met a friend for lunch at McAlister’s. I hadn’t been to McAlister’s in ages, so I went online before I went to check out the menu. Everything looked good, especially “The Godfather” on the secret menu. It was a roast beef sandwich topped with pizza sauce and cheese. OMG! All my favorites in one sandwich. I knew I had to make a version of this at home.
I decided to wrap all the flavors up in a crescent roll. (Isn’t everything better in a crescent roll?) Chicken Legs really liked these. I did too! They were even good reheated for lunch the next day. Not as good as when they were hot out of the oven, but still very tasty!
