GRINDERS





My family has always loved Subs & Grinders which is really just a toasted Sub. Submarine Or Hoagie, whichever you choose to call these type of sandwiches, are an American darling. You may find these in every pizza place, bar, school cafeteria, any deli or grocery store. I love to make these right at home using the freshest ingredients and making each one to the specifications of the person who will be doing the eating. My kids & I always choose turkey for the meat and we are off and running from there. This is my favorite Grinder !

                                                                           



1 Really Good Crusty Sub Roll Split. Spread with mayo or drizzle with olive oil. I bounce back and forth on this one time mayo the next time oil as my mood suits.
2 or 3 slices or more of  Good Deli Turkey Luncheon Meat
3 or 4 Slices of Provolone Cheese ( use whatever cheese you like)
4 Slices of Tomato
Sliced Sweet Onion as much as you like
Baby Spinach leaves or Lettuce ( We like Spinach) as much as you like
Italian Seasonings
Garlic Powder
Lay the meat inside the split roll that you spread with the mayo or oil, lay cheese on next. Layer with the tomato, onion & then the spinach or lettuce. Sprinkle with the seasonings. Loosely enfold into aluminum foil & seal the foil. Place in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes. Remove from oven & carefully remove foil. Serve hot & toasty. Simple but OH SO GOOD!
VARIATIONS : Use ham, bologna, salami & any combo of these. Use cheeses you like. My kids & I love dill pickle sandwich slices in these too but for some reason I did not want them in my Grinder tonight but usually I do. Hot peppers are always an option . Have fun & make up your families new favorite sandwich!
