Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Whole wheat sub rolls
- 200 grams Low-sodium turkey breast
- 200 grams Low-sodium roast beef
- 4 slices Provolone cheese
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato
- 1 small Cucumber
- 1 small Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Slice the tomato and cucumber into thin rounds and the red onion into thin rings. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, olive oil, dried oregano, black pepper, and garlic powder to make the dressing.
Slice the whole wheat sub rolls lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through to keep them connected on one side.
Lay a layer of lettuce leaves on the bottom half of each roll.
Arrange the slices of low-sodium turkey breast and low-sodium roast beef over the lettuce.
Top the meats with two slices of provolone cheese per sandwich.
Add the sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions evenly across the sandwiches.
Drizzle the homemade dressing over the top of the vegetables on each sub.
Close the sandwiches by folding the top half of the rolls over the fillings and gently press down.
Cut the sandwiches in half, if desired, and serve immediately.
