The Ultimate Pool Sandwich

Ingredients

• 1 round bread loaf
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
• 2 cups iceberg lettuce
• 0.5 pounds deli ham
• 0.5 pounds deli turkey
• 6 slices Swiss cheese
• 6 slices Cheddar or Colby Jack cheese

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

2. 2

   Cut a wide circle out of the bread loaf top like you're making a soup bread bowl. Carefully remove and set aside the loaf top.

3. 3

   Hollow out the bread interior, being careful not to break through the sides. The loaf interior can be used to make croutons, so there's no waste.

4. 4

   Melt butter with mustard in the microwave for 15 seconds in a small bowl. Mix well.

5. 5

   Brush butter mixture onto the exterior of the bread loaf and top; place loaf and top on a baking sheet.

6. 6

   Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Let cool.

7. 7

   Pat lettuce dry and place a layer in the bottom of the hollowed-out loaf. Layer cheese over lettuce. Add a layer of ham and turkey. Repeat until the loaf is full. Top with reserved bread top.

8. 8

   Wrap sandwich in plastic wrap and put on a baking sheet. Place another baking sheet on top with something to weigh it down.

9. 9

   Place the completed sandwich on the baking sheet in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight.

10. 10

    Keep the sandwich whole or cut it into easy triangular sections.
