Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 loaf Italian bread, unsliced (use about a 1 pound loaf)
½ cup vinaigrette dressing
½ cup cucumbers (chopped finely)
1 firm tomato (chopped finely)
1-3 tablespoons minced chives (or use green onion)
4 ounces sliced provolone cheese
1 small green pepper, seeded and thinly sliced

Black pepper (optional)
Directions:
Directions:
Using a serrated knife horizontally slice about 1 inch off the top of the bread loaf.

Pull the soft center from bottom half of the loaf, making a shell with about ½ inch thick walls (reserve the soft bread for another use).

In a bowl, mix the vinaigrette dressing with chopped cucumber, tomato and chives.

Brush or spoon about half of the mixture evenly over the interior of the bread shell, also spoon enough dressing on the cut side of the loaf to moisten.

Layer the cheese slices, then bell pepper slices, turkey, salami and onion in the shell.

Sprinkle with black pepper if desired.

Drizzle any remaining dressing over the filling.

Set the bread top over filling.

Wrap the sandwich in plastic wrap and chill for a minimum of 3 hours or up to 1 day.

Unwrap and slice into desired portions.
