For the Sub

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Combine olive oil and red wine vinegar in a small lidded jar. Add oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, fine sea salt, and black pepper. Shake vigorously for about 30 seconds until well combined.
  2. Slice the sub rolls in half lengthwise and gently scoop out some of the bread to create a pocket for the filling.
  3. Drizzle approximately 2 teaspoons of vinaigrette onto the bottom half of each sub roll, spreading it out evenly.
  4. Layer the avocado slices on the top halves of the sub rolls, lightly mashing it with a fork.
  5. Layer your veggies on the bottom halves, starting with provolone cheese, followed by romaine lettuce, tomato, bell pepper, and red onion. Drizzle any leftover vinaigrette over the veggies.
  6. Top with black olive slices and pepper slices. Close the sandwiches with the mashed avocado tops and serve.
