Servings: 4 sandwiches
Calories: 945kcal
Ingredients
- 4 sub rolls or hoagie rolls
- ½ pound salami sliced
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- ½ pound turkey breast sliced
- ½ pound ham sliced
- ½ small red onion thinly sliced
- 1 cup lettuce shredded
- 1 medium tomato sliced
- ½ cup banana peppers drained
For the Grinder Dressing
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Slice the sub rolls lengthwise. Make sure you keep them hinged by not cutting all the way through.
- Layer ham, salami, turkey and provolone evenly inside each roll.
- Add red onion, banana peppers, tomato slices and shredded lettuce over the cheese and meats.
- In a small bowl, whisk all the dressing ingredients together. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
- Spoon the grinder dressing generously over the fillings and close the rolls.
- Press each sandwich down lightly, slice in half and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use a serrated knife: It cuts through the roll and filling with less pressure.
- Stir the dressing: Give it a quick stir if it’s been sitting in the fridge.
- Slice over parchment: It catches any loose lettuce or dressing and makes cleanup simpler.
