  3. Next, add slices of Provolone cheese atop the meats.
  4. Add layers of shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, red onions, and bell pepper. Don’t be shy—load them up!
  5. Drizzle a little more Olive oil and vinegar on top of the vegetables, sprinkle with oregano, salt, and pepper, and close the sandwich firmly.
  6. Slice the hoagie in half, and it’s ready to enjoy!

Notes

Substitutes Matter: You can swap out meats for other Halal-friendly options like turkey or chicken breast if you prefer lighter fare. Freshness is Key: Utilize fresh vegetables and quality rolls for the best texture. Timing: Assemble the sandwich just before serving to maintain the crunch of the vegetables. If you have leftovers, place your sandwich in an airtight container and refrigerate. Best enjoyed within 1-2 days. For reheating, wrap the sandwich in aluminum foil and pop it in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes.
