Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup olive salad (store-bought or homemade)
8 slices of salami
8 slices of mortadella
8 slices of ham
8 ounces provolone cheese, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Slice the bread loaf horizontally. Toast lightly if a crunchier texture is desired.
Spread olive salad evenly on both bread halves, reaching the edges for full flavor.
Layer salami, mortadella, ham, and provolone cheese on one bread half.
Drizzle olive oil over the layered ingredients and top with the second half of bread.
