Instructions

1. 1. Spread the olive salad evenly over the bottom half of the bread loaf.

2. 2. Layer the salami, mortadella, capicola, provolone, and mozzarella cheese on top of the olive salad.

3. 3. Place the top half of the bread loaf over the cheese and press down gently to compact the sandwich.

4. 4. Slice the sandwich into wedges and serve immediately, or wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Notes

For best results, use a high-quality Italian bread and let the sandwich sit for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Adjust the meat and cheese quantities to your preference.
