I used to work in a sandwich shop as a teen. I don’t know how many sub sandwiches I made, but I’m sure it was in the thousands. It doesn’t take much to jazz up a simple sandwich. This Hoagie dressing is all you need. I didn’t have fresh herbs on hand, so I made this hoagie dressing with dried and it came out fantastic. The herby flavor really makes you forget about ever using bland mayonnaise on a sandwich again.
The Perfect Lunch
I keep a batch of this hoagie dressing on hand in a squeeze bottle. I’ll never make another boring sandwich. My favorite starts with just good ole sandwich meat. I add a little onion. Tomato. Chopped iceberg lettuce. Salt and pepper (never forget the salt and pepper!). And a couple of good squirts of this dressing. Perfect!
Speaking of non-boring, check out my Italian hoagie.
