Time 2h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (14 ounce) can marinated artichoke hearts, drained
2 cloves garlic, peeled
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 (6 inch) French sandwich rolls
¾ cup sliced roasted red peppers
2 cups arugula leaves or spring mix
8 ounces thinly sliced hard salami
8 ounces thinly sliced provolone cheese
4 pepperoncini peppers, drained and chopped
½ cup sliced black olives
½ red onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender, combine the artichoke hearts, garlic and olive oil. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Slice the sandwich rolls in half lengthwise, and pull out most of the soft bread from the top and bottom. Spread the artichoke paste onto each side of each roll. Place layers of red peppers, arugula, salami, provolone cheese, pepperoncini, olives and onion into the rolls. Press sandwiches together, and wrap tightly in aluminum foil.
  • Place sandwiches in the refrigerator, and place something heavy on top. It helps to place a plate on top, then place cans or any weighted containers on top. I used cottage cheese. Chill for up to 3 hours. Unwrap, cut in half and enjoy.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used grilled tofu instead of meat in my sandwich. It was amazing!

I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I had to leave them out of the sandwich. It was still delicious!

I'm not a big fan of Italian food, but this sandwich was surprisingly good. The bread was crispy, the fillings were juicy, and the dressing was tangy.
