How to Make Baked Italian Heros

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Brush the cut sides of 4 Italian rolls generously with your favorite Italian dressing.
  3. Layer the bottom halves of each roll with the following: 4 oz thinly sliced salami, 4 oz thinly sliced turkey, 4 oz thinly sliced ham, 8 slices provolone cheese, 1/2 cup sliced tomatoes, and 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion.
  4. Replace the top halves of the rolls.
  5. Place each sandwich on a separate piece of aluminum foil and wrap tightly.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the rolls are lightly golden.
  7. Carefully remove the foil (watch out for steam!), let the Heros rest for a minute or two, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
