Ingredients
  

For the Slaw:

  • ½ cup mayonaise
  • ½ head iceberg lettuce, shredded or finely sliced
  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced
  • cup sliced pepperoncini peppers, drained
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

For the sandwich:

  • 4 Hoagie rolls
  • ¼ lb salami, thinly sliced
  • ¼ lb pepperoni, thinly sliced
  • ½ lb Mortadella, thinly sliced
  • ½ lb roast beef, thinly sliced
  • 8 slices Provolone cheese
  • 1 large tomato, sliced
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 tbsp horseradish sauce, optional
  • 2 tbsp mustard, optional

Instructions
 

Make the slaw:

  • Place shredded lettuce, sliced red onion, and pepperoncini peppers in a mixing bowl.
  • In a small mixing bowl combine mayonnaise, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Add the mayo mixture and red wine vinegar to the lettuce, red onion, and pepperoncini peppers. Stir to make a slaw. Set aside.

Make the sandwiches:

  • Slice rolls in half. Spread with horseradish sauce and mustard if using.
  • Top half the rolls with sliced salami and pepperoni. Top the other half with roast beef and mortadella.
  • Top sliced meats with Provolone cheese and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
  • Place sandwiches in the oven and set temperature to "broil". Toast sandwiches until cheese has melted and it's hot, bubbly and golden brown along the edges.
  • Remove toasted sandwiches from oven and top one half of each sandwich with tomato slices and the other half with a generous heaping of the prepared slaw.
  • Sprinkle with additional grated Parmesan cheese and serve immediately with lots of napkins.
