Method
 

Steps to Assemble
  1. Carefully slice the Italian bread horizontally, keeping one side connected. This will serve as your sandwich pocket for all those fabulous fillings!
  2. Begin by laying down the thinly sliced salami on the bottom half of the bread. The more, the merrier—this is where the flavor journey begins!
  3. Next, pile on the capicola followed by slices of creamy provolone cheese. Let those flavors mingle and transport you to an Italian deli!
  4. Sprinkle the sliced olives and fresh vegetables generously over the cheese. The colorful assortment adds both crunch and zest to your sandwich.
  5. Generously drizzle the Italian dressing over the vibrant layers. This tangy addition ties everything together beautifully for a taste explosion.
  6. Gently press down on the sandwich to combine the layers. For an extra flavor meld, wrap the sandwich in foil and let it rest for a few minutes if time allows.
  7. Finally, slice the sandwich into manageable portions and serve with a smile – your Chopped Italian Sandwiches are ready to impress!

Notes

When making Chopped Italian Sandwiches, choose fresh, crusty bread to ensure it can hold all the fillings without falling apart. Let the sandwich rest wrapped in foil for at least five minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
