Ingredients

• 4 pieces Sub rolls (soft or crusty, as preferred)
• 8 slices Deli meat (e.g., turkey, ham, roast beef, or chicken)
• 4 slices Cheese (e.g., provolone, cheddar, Swiss, or mozzarella)
• 2 cups Lettuce (shredded or whole leaves)
• 2 pieces Tomato (sliced)
• 1 piece Cucumber (sliced, optional)
• 0.5 piece Red onion (thinly sliced, optional)
• 0.5 cup Pickles (sliced, optional)
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Mustard (yellow or Dijon)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the sub rolls in half lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through, so the roll opens like a hinge.

Step 2

Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of the roll and mustard on the other side.

Step 3

Layer 2 slices of your preferred deli meat and 1 slice of cheese on the bottom half of each roll.

Step 4

Top the meat and cheese with a handful of shredded lettuce, a few slices of tomato, and any optional toppings like cucumber, red onion, or pickles.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper to create a simple sub dressing.

Step 6

Drizzle the dressing over the assembled toppings inside each sub roll.

Step 7

Close the sandwich gently, pressing down slightly to help everything hold together.

Step 8

Serve immediately or wrap tightly in parchment paper or foil for an on-the-go meal.
