Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to achieve a perfect blend of crispy exterior and gooey cheese interior.
  2. Step 2: Slice the sub rolls lengthwise to create a pocket for the fillings without cutting all the way through.
  3. Step 3: Layer salami, capicola, mozzarella, and provolone cheeses inside each roll, then add banana peppers.
  4. Step 4: Drizzle olive oil over the sandwiches, place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake for 15-20 minutes until cheese is bubbly and rolls are golden.
  5. Step 5: Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, slice into portions, and serve with chips or salad.
