Ingredients
  

  • 4 soft plain sub rolls 8 inches long
  • 8 oz thinly sliced deli ham
  • 4 oz thinly sliced Genoa salami
  • 4 oz provolone thinly sliced
  • 2 cups shredded romaine washed and thoroughly dried
  • 1/2 cup finely diced celery
  • 1/2 cup jarred roasted red peppers drained and blotted dry
  • 1/4 cup sliced pepperoncini drained and blotted dry
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Cut ham, salami and provolone into small pieces on a large clean board. Add romaine, celery, roasted peppers and pepperoncini and chop together until pieces are about 1/4 inch, keeping some texture.
  2. Stir mayonnaise, vinegar, oil, oregano and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chopped mixture and fold until lightly dressed.
  3. Split the rolls lengthwise without cutting through the hinge. Remove only a little loose crumb if needed to make room for the filling.
  4. Divide the chopped mixture equally among the rolls, spreading it along their full length. Close gently and rest for 2 minutes so the filling settles.
  5. Cut each sub across the middle and serve promptly. Keep any waiting portions refrigerated and use the same day for the best crunch.
