Savory Eats
A big, hearty sandwich is my ideal lunch. My favorite Italian subs come from Gallo's Italian Deli back at home in Newport Beach. To create a perfect sub, you need the flaky yet soft hero bread; thinly sliced, fresh cold-cuts; crisp, seasoned vegetables; and a tasty spread or dressing. Today I bring to you, my homemade PERFECT Italian Hoagie...
...from an Italian deli I like to call my kitchen
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onions
- 7 ounce can artichoke hearts, rinsed and chopped
- 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive tapenade (store bought)
- 3 leaves romaine lettuce
- 1/4 cup canned banana peppers
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 long baguette or hero (whole grain)
- 3 sliced fresh provolone cheese
- 3 slices fresh ham
- 3 slices fresh salami
- 3 slices fresh honey roasted turkey
- Salt and Lemon Pepper
Recipe:
-Slice the red onion first and soak in cold water and set aside.
-Combine artichoke hearts, tomato, vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
-Slice the baguette in half. Pull out about half of the soft bread from each side.
-Spread olive tapenade on one half of hero. Layer the slices of provolone, salami, turkey, and ham on the other half of the bread.
-Remove the onions from water and pat dry.
-Spread the tomato/artichoke/dressing mixture on top of the tapenade.
-Add the romaine lettuce, banana peppers, and a dash of salt and pepper on top.
Enjoy! I promise this sandwich won't disappoint!!
