Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich Base
  • 4 rolls Sub Rolls Crusty Italian bread like ciabatta or focaccia works as a substitute.
For the Meats
  • 4 oz Deli Salami Adds a spicy kick; turkey salami is a lighter alternative.
  • 4 oz Deli Pepperoni Classic Italian flavor; consider capicola for something different.
  • 6 oz Deli Mortadella Rich depth; prosciutto can elevate the taste.
For the Cheese
  • 8 oz Provolone Cheese Offers creaminess; mozzarella for a milder flavor.
For the Veggies
  • 10 leaves Romaine Lettuce Adds fresh crunch; arugula for a peppery twist.
  • 2 Roma Tomatoes Essential for juiciness; cherry tomatoes for convenience.
  • ½ Onion Brings sharpness; green onions for a milder option.
  • 1 cup Pickles Adds a zesty crunch; pickled jalapeños for extra spice.
For the Dressing
  • ½ cup Mayonnaise Creamy base; Greek yogurt for a healthier option.
  • 2 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar Infuses tanginess; apple cider vinegar as an alternative.
  • 2 tablespoon Dijon Mustard Adds depth and kick; regular mustard works in a pinch.
  • 1 tablespoon Extra-Virgin Olive Oil Enhances richness; avocado oil is a substitute.
For the Seasoning
  • Seasonings Dried oregano, basil, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and sugar.
