Chopped Italian Subs: Dive into Deliciousness!

Hold onto your taste buds, folks, because I’m about to introduce you to a sandwich experience like no other – Chopped Italian Subs! 🥖🧀🍅 Brace yourself for a flavor explosion that’ll make your mouth water and your stomach rumble in anticipation!

Ingredients:

To craft these mouthwatering subs, you’ll need:

• Italian baguettes or hoagie rolls
• Salami, pepperoni, and ham (or your favorite deli meats)
• Provolone cheese slices
• Sliced tomatoes
• Thinly sliced red onions
• Shredded lettuce
• Banana peppers (optional)
• Olive oil
• Red wine vinegar
• Italian seasoning
• Salt and pepper
• Garlic powder
• Mayonnaise
• Dijon mustard
• Oregano (for garnish)

How to Make-Instructions:

1. Prep Your Ingredients: Slice the baguettes or hoagie rolls horizontally and lightly toast them. Gather your meats, cheeses, and veggies.
2. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and a dash of garlic powder to create a flavorful dressing.
3. Assemble the Subs: Spread mayonnaise and Dijon mustard on the bottom half of each roll. Layer on the meats, cheeses, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and banana peppers.
4. Drizzle with Dressing: Drizzle the dressing over the fillings, allowing it to soak into the bread and infuse the flavors.
5. Top and Serve: Sprinkle some oregano on top for a final touch of Italian flair. Close the subs, slice them in half if desired, and serve immediately.

Helpful Tips:

• For an extra kick of flavor, try adding sliced olives or roasted red peppers to your subs.
• Don’t overdo it with the dressing – a little goes a long way to enhance the flavors without making the bread soggy.
• Customize your subs to suit your taste preferences by swapping out ingredients or adjusting the seasonings.

Variations of Chopped Italian Subs:

• Go vegetarian by omitting the deli meats and doubling up on the cheese and veggies.
• Experiment with different types of bread, such as ciabatta or focaccia, for a unique twist on the classic sub.
• Try different condiments like pesto or balsamic glaze for a creative flavor boost.
