ITALIAN SUBMARINE

My Italian husband grew up eating this flavorful sandwich, which his mother used to make it after Saturday chores were finished. Put the sub together a few hours ahead and refrigerate, then serve with chips, veggies and dip for a delicious meal. -Christine Lupella, Fifty Lakes, Minnesota
