Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich

  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 8 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 4 ounces Genoa salami
  • 4 ounces pepperoni
  • 8 ounces roasted turkey breast
  • 6 ounces Provolone cheese
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 12 medium tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup sliced pepperoncini peppers (or cherry peppers)

Italian Dressing

  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rolls: Spread 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise evenly on the bottom half of each hoagie roll to add creaminess and moisture.
  2. Add meats and cheese: Layer slices of Genoa salami, pepperoni, roasted turkey breast, and Provolone cheese on the bottom half, building a hearty protein base.
  3. Prepare the vegetable layer: On the top half of each roll, arrange the shredded iceberg lettuce, tomato slices, thinly sliced red onion, and sliced pepperoncini peppers to add fresh crunch and a tangy bite.
  4. Make the Italian dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, and Dijon mustard until the mixture is well combined and creamy in texture.
  5. Dress the sandwich: Drizzle the Italian dressing generously over the vegetable side of the top rolls to infuse vibrant flavor.
  6. Assemble and serve: Bring the two halves of each sandwich together gently but firmly. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshest taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh hoagie rolls for the best texture and flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of pepperoncini peppers based on your preferred spice level.
  • Substitute turkey breast with ham or roast beef for variation.
  • For a lighter version, use light mayonnaise or Greek yogurt.
