Ingredients

4 long hoagie rolls
4 slices of deli pepper jack cheese
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
12 slices of deli ham
12 slices of thin salami
8 sliced deli turkey lunch meat
20 pepperoni slices
8 ounces shredded lettuce
1/2 cup Olive Garden Italian Dressing
1/3 cup Mayonnaise
1/4 cup banana peppers
1 tablespoon banana pepper juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Sliced tomatoes

Instructions

Start by preheating the oven to 425 degrees.
In a medium size mixing bowl add your chopped lettuce, Italian dressing, mayonnaise, banana peppers, banana pepper juice, and salt and pepper. Toss well to mix.
Set the grinder salad to the side to let it soak in all the flavors.
Slice your rolls in half lengthwise and open them up. Add sliced pepper jack cheese on one side of the bun.
Top with slices of ham, pepperoni, and salami. Then on the other half of the bun add your sliced turkey, and top with mozzarella cheese.
Toss the grinder sandwiches in the oven and cook for around 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
Remove from oven when cheese is melted. Add on sliced tomatoes, and grinder lettuce salad, and fold sandwich together and serve immediately.

Notes

Grinder Salad - I used pre-cut lettuce but you can chop up your own lettuce if you prefer.

Lunch Meat - All of my meat was deli meat. Feel free to use any lunch meats you like, I just preferred the blend of all of these.

Bread - Any long bread works, or you could even make slider sandwiches if you would prefer.
