Chopped Italian Sandwiches
This mouthwatering chopped Italian sandwich is assembled using a method in which all the ingredients are arranged in a single layer, finely chopped together and then layered onto the bread. It’s a straightforward yet efficient technique that you’ll find yourself using again and again. Feel free to add Italian antipasto ingredients like canned artichokes, olives, sun-dried tomatoes or roasted bell peppers for an extra-flavorful twist.
