Recipe: Muffaletta Sandwich

Lately, I’ve been in the mood for a muffaletta - and with Mardi Gras this week, it’s a good time to eat food from New Orleans.

1 big round loaf or individual rolls, hollowed out slightly to create room for filling
1 cup mixed olives, chopped
1 cup giardiniera (hot pickled vegetables), chopped (the food processor works well!)
1 teaspoon fresh parsley
1 teaspoon oregano
black pepper
can mix with olive oil (about 2 tablespoons) and red wine vinegar (about 1 tablespoon), to taste (although it will work without this as well)
1/8 - 1/4 lb. each Genoa salami, capicola or other ham
1/4 lb. provolone

Fill bottom half of bread with meats and cheese, alternating layers. Mix topping ingredients and pile on top. Gently push down the top of the bread
