    List of Ingredients




    6 Pounds SMOKED TURKEY BREAST shaved thin
    3 Pounds Provolone cheese shaved thin
    1 Pound zucchini cut into 1/4 inch dice
    1 Pound plum tomatoes cut into 1/4 inch dice
    1 Pound eggplant cut into 1/4 inch dice
    1/2 Pound onion cut into 1/4 inch dice
    4 Cloves garlic minced
    3 Tablespoons Italian herb blend
    8 Ounces Parmesan cheese grated
    To taste salt and pepper
    1/2 Cup olive oil
    olive loaves or boules sliced
    As needed rosemary sprigs or basil leaves

    Recipe



    Divide the turkey into 4-ounce portions and divide the Provolone into 2-ounce portions. Wrap, refrigerate and reserve.
    Mix the vegetables, seasonings and Parmesan together. Cover and reserve.
    To order: heat the bread on the griddle, with the cut side down, until golden brown. Place a 4-ounce serving of turkey on the griddle; heat for about 1 minute, turn the turkey over and place 2 ounces Provolone on top of the turkey, allowing the cheese to melt. Place 1/2 cup vegetable mixture on the griddle and stir-fry with 1 teaspoon olive oil for about 1 minute.
    When the cheese has almost melted, remove the bread from the griddle and place the turkey/cheese onto the bread. Add the heated vegetables. Cover with the top of the roll. Slice the sandwich on the diagonal. Garnish plate with fresh herbs.
    May use seven-grain bread if the olive loaves or boules are not available.

    Serves 24
