  • 1/4 Cup Red Wine Vinegar
  • 2 Teaspoons of Italian seasonings
  • Salt and Pepper (to taste)

Add ingredients to a salad dressing bottle and shake to combine. 

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F
  2. Cut the ciabatta loaf in half (or you can use 4 hoagie rolls, split and toasted)
  3. Lightly brush the insides of the ciabatta loaf with the homemade Italian dressing. Toast for 5 mins. Set aside
  4. While the toasted loaf or rolls are cooling, cut up your toppings & cook bacon according to package instructions. 
  5. Spread a thin layer of Mayo on the bottom half of loaf. Now, layer the turkey, ham, and cheese.
  6. Place the loaf on sheet pan lined aluminum foil without the top loaf and bake until cheese is melted (12-15 mins) or can place 4 inches from broiler for a few minutes to melt cheese. 
  7. Top the toasted loaf or rolls with arugula or lettuce, tomato slices, cucumber slices and cooked bacon.
  8. When ready to serve, slice the loaf into sandwiches. Serve warm.

*Note: you can use hoagie rolls, instead of lining the pan with aluminum foil you would wrap each individual sandwich in aluminum foil and bake them for 12-15 mins or until the cheese is melted
