Jersey Mike’s Club Supreme Sub In A Tub

I love having a sub in a tub for lunch. They’re super easy to make. They taste just like their sandwich big brothers, but without the bread. Today I made a Jersey Mike’s Club Supreme sub in a tub. I start with a few handfuls of fresh-chopped lettuce. I like a combination of about half iceberg and half green leaf lettuce. Then I add some sliced sandwich meats. In this case, turkey and roast beef. I then grab a few pieces of cooked bacon out of the freezer, microwave it for about 15 seconds, and chop. Next, a little chopped Swiss, tomato and onion. And I never forget some salt and pepper. No salad is complete without it!

The Perfect Lunch In A Tub

I use whatever dressing I have on hand to top my Jersey Mike’s Club Supreme sub in a tub. I drizzle a bit over the top then stir it up. One nice thing about making these salads in a tub is that I don’t have to worry about getting all of it coated in my dressing. It’s easy to stir inside the tub.

Cleanup is easy too. Just toss the container into the dishwasher!

Prepare Ahead

The day I make these I just grab containers out of the fridge. The lettuce, tomatoes and onions are already chopped for me. Each in its own container. I spend a little time two days a week getting everything together. After that, it’s just pretty much just ‘everyone into the tub’! For the sandwich meats, I like to stack the meats and then roll them up like a cigar. A quick slice and boom! Cool little meat rolls!

I prefer to bake my bacon. I then freeze it. It’s perfect for topping my salads! It’s ready in seconds, just wrap in a paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds.

Catalina Salad Dressing

This Catalina salad dressing is one of our all-time favorites. It’s quite easy to make and always delicious. And it uses ingredients that we almost always have on hand. That’s a definite plus too! This recipe makes about 2 cups, which might sound like a good bit of dressing, but trust me, it’s so good you’ll use it up fast.

The Onion Is Key

The grated onion is one of the key ingredients in this Catalina salad dressing. Don’t skip it and don’t skimp on it. I used about a tablespoon, but you might want more. Or less. It takes a bit of effort to grate the onion, but the flavor it adds is so worth it.

This dressing gets even better after sitting in the fridge for a few hours. Just make sure to give it a good shake or stir before serving.

Blimpie’s Roast Beef and Provolone Sub In A Tub

I’ve been on a ‘sub in a tub’ journey lately. I just love the ease and flavor from a quick salad that mimics my favorite sandwiches. I can make them the night before in just minutes. They’re great at home, at the office, on a picnic… anywhere! Today I had a Blimpie’s roast beef and provolone sub in a tub. I use a mix of 50/50 iceberg and green leaf lettuce to start with. I add a little chopped onion and tomato. And then comes the sliced roast beef sandwich meat and provolone cheese. Topped with my favorite salad dressing, this is my kind of lunch!

Eating Out Of A Tub Is Fun

I don’t know why I love eating my Blimpie’s roast beef and provolone sub in a tub out of a tub so much. Heck, I was eating at home. I have salad bowls and plates. Too many of them in fact. But there’s something about eating out of a tub. One thing I’ve noticed is that the salad and dressing seem to mix better. Easier. Nothing is flying off my plate as I stir, getting that dressing on every salad ingredient.

Prep Ahead For Easy Salads

I spend a few minutes a few times a week preparing the ingredients I need for my subs in a tub. In one container I place a mix of lettuces, chopped to bite-sized pieces. In another, chopped Roma tomato. Why Roma? I’ve found them to be tastier and easier to chop. And cheaper. I just make sure that they are good and ripe. Last, I have a container for chopped onion. I cut the sandwich meat and cheese when I make the salads, though I could easily prepare them ahead of time too.
