The Ultimate Giant Italian Sub Recipe for a Crowd

This Giant Baked Italian Sub is perfect for feeding a crowd! All your favorite Italian sub ingredients are piled high on a toasted French loaf and baked to cheesy, bubbly perfection.

Ingredients:

• 15 oz. Loaf French Bread (or use 4-6 individual sub rolls)
• Olive Oil
• 1+1/4 tsp Italian Seasoning, divided
• 14 oz. Sliced Deli Ham
• 2.5 oz. Turkey Pepperoni (or regular pepperoni)
• 8 oz. Sliced Provolone Cheese
• 1/2 of a Large Head Iceberg Lettuce, sliced thin (7 oz.)
• 1 Large Tomato, sliced in thin rounds (6 oz.)
• 1 Cup Whole Pepperoncinis, stems removed (5 oz.)
• Italian Dressing

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Slice the bread in half through the middle and place it cut side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle both sides of the bread with olive oil and sprinkle with 1 tsp Italian seasoning.

Layer provolone cheese on the the top piece of the bread and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning. Place the ham in a layer on the bottom piece of bread, followed by the pepperoni.

Bake for about 18 minutes, until the cheese is melted with deep golden brown spots and the bread is crisp and toasted.

While the sub is in the oven, toss the tomatoes, pepperoncinis, and iceberg lettuce generously in Italian dressing.

Layer the veggies on top of the ham and pepperoni and place the cheesy bread on top. Cut in six sections along a diagonal angle and enjoy!
