Directions

In a small bowl, whisk together the Primal Kitchen Poppyseed Dressing, red wine vinegar, salt, red pepper flakes (if using), Italian seasoning, oregano and grated Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped lettuce, red onion, pepperoncini or banana peppers, and chopped garlic or shallots.
Pour the prepared dressing over the salad ingredients and toss well to combine. Let it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Bake or air fry your Outer Aisle Sandwich Rounds.
To assemble the sandwich lay down one slice of an Outer Aisle Sandwich Rounds as the base then layer your choice of deli meats over it, add a slice of provolone cheese, top with some thinly sliced tomatoes, and spoon a generous amount of the prepared salad. Close the sandwich with another slice of Outer Aisle Sandwich Rounds.

Recipe Note

Optional Grilling: If you prefer a hot sandwich, you can optionally grill the assembled sandwich in a panini press or stovetop grill pan for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the sandwich is heated through.
