Ingredients

• 8 large Romaine lettuce leaves
• 4 slices Thinly sliced salami
• 4 slices Thinly sliced ham
• 4 slices Thinly sliced provolone cheese
• 8 slices Thinly sliced pepperoni
• 0.25 small, thinly sliced Red onion
• 1 small, thinly sliced Tomato
• 0.25 cup, drained and sliced Pepperoncini peppers
• 0.25 cup, sliced Black olives
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by washing and drying the romaine lettuce leaves thoroughly. Make sure the leaves are large and intact to serve as the 'bread' for your sandwich.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Stir until well combined. This will be the dressing for your sub sandwich.

Step 3

Lay two lettuce leaves side by side, slightly overlapping them to create a base. These leaves will form the bottom of your sub.

Step 4

On top of the lettuce, evenly layer 2 slices of salami, 2 slices of ham, and 2 slices of provolone cheese.

Step 5

Add 4 slices of pepperoni evenly over the cheese.

Step 6

Distribute half of the sliced red onions, half of the sliced tomatoes, half of the sliced pepperoncini peppers, and half of the sliced black olives over the cheese and meats.

Step 7

Drizzle half of the salad dressing you prepared earlier over the vegetables.

Step 8

Carefully roll the lettuce around the fillings to form a wrap, tucking in the sides as you roll to secure the contents.

Step 9

Repeat the same process with the remaining ingredients to make a second sub sandwich.

Step 10

Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh and crisp Italian flavors.
