This chopped sandwich trend is the best – every bite is perfection! To continue this month of Italian-inspired dishes, I made this chopped Italian sub and loved the balance.
Chopped Italian Sub
Ingredients: (serves 2)
2 sub rolls
~4 slices mortadella
~4 large or 8 mini slices of salami
~4 slices of pepperoni
~2 slices of provolone
lettuce
1/2 green bell pepper or cucumber
1 small tomato
2 tablespoons deli dressing or red wine vinegar/olive oil + 1/2 tsp dried oregano
salt & pepper
optional: red pepper flakes, pickles; olives; hot peppers; onions
Directions:
Chop the meats, cheese, and veggies into a fine chop.
Mix with dressing/oil & vinegar and seasoning.
Serve on rolls.
This is so so good. Make one or make a bunch! Each bite balances the salty meats with fresh veggies. I love this sub-dressing we get near the deli to drizzle right onto a sandwich (or mix into mayo if packing the sandwich). That oil/vinegar flavor takes it from sandwich to like take out.
I made a Chopped Avocado BLT one last year and loved it too!
