Ingredients

  • 3-4 large hoagie rolls
  • 3-4 oz thinly sliced salami
  • 3-4 oz thinly sliced ham
  • 3-4 oz pepperoni
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • 8 oz shredded lettuce
  • 1 small red onion peeled & thinly sliced
  • 3-4 slices tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup sliced pepperoncini
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Italian dressing
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Spread the lettuce out in an even layer on a large wooden cutting board.
  • Next, add the veggies in an even layer- onion slices, pepperoncini, and then sliced tomatoes. Layer the meats on next, followed by the cheese.
  • Add the mayo, vinegar, dressing, and seasonings directly on top of the meat.
  • Using a sharp knife finely chop all of the ingredients, mixing them together as you continue to chop. Chop until they're all bite sized pieces of similar size and the mixture's creamy and evenly incorporated.
  • Divide the filling into 3-4 'logs' that're roughly the same length as your hoagie buns, and lay the open buns on top of them. Slide your knife flat under the filling and using the knife to hold it in place and press it into the bun, flip the hoagie over with the filling inside.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use different lunch meats to suit your tastes. Bologna, roast beef, and capicola ham are also really good in these chopped Italian sandwiches.
  • Likewise, you can switch up the cheeses. Sliced mozzarella and shredded Parmesan would both be delicious additions (or substitutions).
  • Love other toppings on your sub sandwiches? Add them to the mix! Just make sure everything is chopped to the same finely diced consistency so that all the flavors are evenly incorporated into each bite.
