ITALIAN HERO SUB RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F (350°F for dark or nonstick cooking sheet).
• Unroll both cans of dough; separate into 16 triangles. On ungreased large cookie sheet, arrange triangles in ring so short sides of triangles form a 5-inch circle in center. Dough will overlap. Dough ring should look like the sun.
• Place 8 cheese halves on the half of each triangle closest to center of ring. Top with ham. Top with roasted red bell peppers, salami and capocollo slices over ham. Arrange pepper rings over top. Cover with remaining 8 cheese halves.
• Bring each dough triangle up over filling, tucking dough under bottom layer of dough to secure it. Repeat around ring until entire filling is enclosed (some filling might show a little). Sprinkle with black pepper.
• Bake 23 to 28 minutes or until dough is golden brown and thoroughly baked. Cool 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into serving slices.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to a food processor and pulse until ingredients are broken up into similar-sized small chunks. You can accomplish the same results without a food processor by finely chopping all the ingredients then stirring in the oil and red wine vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper then refrigerate until ready to use  Set one oven-safe wire racks into each of two baking sheets. Place the eggplant slices on one, and the zucchini on the other. Salt both eggplant and zucchini slices with about 1 tablespoon salt on all sides. Let sit for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour. Then pat dry vegetables thoroughly with a paper towel. Adjust oven racks to lower and center positions, and preheat to 425º. In a large bowl, combine 5 tablespoons oil, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon oregano, garlic powder, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ tsp black pepper. Toss the zucchini in the mixture until fully coated then transfer it to its rack on the baking sheet. Then toss the eggplant in the mixture and transfer it to its rack on the baking sheet. Transfer the sheets (with the veggies still on their wire racks) to the oven and roast for about 20 to 25 minutes, switching the sheets halfway through, until the veggies are tender and have browned slightly. Set aside to cool. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 4 tablespoons oil, red wine vinegar and remaining 1 teaspoon oregano. (These ingredients can also be added to a squeeze bottle and shaken.) Assemble the sandwiches: Slice the bread and scoop out the inner bread of only the top half of each. Sprinkle both sides of the bread with the oil and vinegar mixture. Begin layering with the roasted vegetables followed by provolone. Add the tomatoes, onion, peppers, and iceberg. Spread a layer of mayo (if using) to the top half of the bread then fill the space left by scooping out the bread with olive salad. Slice the sandwiches into equal portions, stab with toothpicks and serve.
