People love these hearty little sandwich wedges. The recipe is great for a party and can be made the day before.—Gareth Craner, Minden, Nevada

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pimiento-stuffed olives, drained and chopped
  • 1 can (4-1/4 ounces) chopped ripe olives
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

  • 6 French rolls, split
  • 1/2 pound thinly sliced hard salami
  • 1/4 pound sliced provolone cheese
  • 1/2 pound thinly sliced cotto salami
  • 1/4 pound sliced part-skim mozzarella cheese

  2. Spread olive mixture over tops and bottoms of rolls. On roll bottoms, layer hard salami, provolone cheese, cotto salami and mozzarella cheese. Replace tops.
  3. Wrap tightly. Refrigerate overnight. Cut each into 6 wedges; secure sandwiches with toothpicks.
