Ingredients
Scale
Sandwich Rolls
- 2 large sub sandwich rolls
Meats and Cheese
- 4 slices deli turkey
- 4 slices deli ham
- 4 slices provolone cheese
Vegetables
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 4–6 pickle slices
Condiments
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon mustard
Instructions
- Toast the Rolls: Lightly toast the sub rolls in a toaster or on a skillet until golden and slightly crispy to add texture and warmth.
- Prepare Fillings: Slice the tomato and red onion thinly, shred the lettuce, and arrange the deli turkey, ham, provolone cheese, and condiments for easy assembly.
- Spread Condiments: Slice the toasted sub rolls lengthwise and evenly spread mayonnaise and mustard on both cut sides for flavor and moisture.
- Layer Ingredients: Start by layering the turkey, ham, and provolone cheese evenly inside the roll, then top with shredded lettuce, tomato slices, thinly sliced red onion, and pickle slices to build the sandwich.
- Press and Rest: Gently press the sandwich together to combine the flavors, wrap it in parchment paper, and let it sit for 5 minutes so the ingredients meld nicely.
- Slice and Serve: Cut the sandwich in half for easier handling and serve immediately fresh, or wrap for taking on the go.
Notes
- Lightly toasting the rolls helps prevent sogginess from the condiments.
- Letting the sandwich rest wrapped allows flavors to meld and the bread to absorb moisture without becoming soggy.
- Use fresh, crisp vegetables for the best crunch and flavor.
- Feel free to customize with your favorite deli meats or cheese varieties.
- This sandwich is best served fresh but can be wrapped tightly and refrigerated for a few hours if needed.
