salami

🥗Healthier: turkey salami

💰Cheaper: bologna

Turkey salami reduces fat while bologna is often less expensive.

provolone cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: American cheese

Part-skim mozzarella has fewer calories, while American cheese is budget-friendly.

capicola

🥗Healthier: roasted turkey

💰Cheaper: ham

Roasted turkey is leaner, and ham is often more affordable.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil offers health benefits, while canola oil is a cost-effective alternative.

Grate 2 cloves of garlic finely.

In a bowl, combine grated garlic, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and a little olive oil. Whisk together to make the dressing.

Slice 2 hoagie rolls in half without cutting all the way through.

Spread the dressing on the bottom half of the hoagie rolls.

Layer 4 slices of sliced ham on the bottom half of each roll.

Add 4 slices of capicola ham on top of the sliced ham.

Add 4 slices of chorizo salami on top of the capicola.

Place sliced mozzarella and provolone cheese on top of the meats.

Add spinach (or Roma/Iceberg lettuce) on top of the cheese.

Layer thinly sliced tomatoes, green bell peppers, sliced red onion, banana peppers, and olives on top of the spinach.

Close the sandwich and enjoy.
