    Wash and chop the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers. Place them in a bowl and set aside.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Slice the Bread

    Take the Italian sub rolls and slice them open lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through.

    Add a slice of provolone cheese and a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of the meats in each sub roll.

    Add Vegetables

    Top each sub with a generous amount of the chopped lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers.

  5. 7

    Drizzle with Condiments

    In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle this mixture over the vegetables in each sub.

  6. 8

    Close the Subs

    Carefully close each sub roll. Press down gently to ensure the ingredients stay in place.

Serving

    Cut and Arrange

    If desired, cut each sub into halves or quarters for easier serving. Arrange them neatly on a large platter.
