roast beef and provolone Archives

Sure, I coulda got a sub for lunch. Ordered it delivered or driven down the street for it. But I wasn’t in the mood. Plus I’m all about making my lunch at home. I work here. I’m not going out to grab a sandwich. So I made a Jersey Mike’s Roast Beef and Provolone sub in a tub instead! And boy was it a mighty delicious salad! Fresh ingredients, ready in no time. And heck, I even felt better after eating it!

No Bread. No Worries.

Everything is here on my Jersey Mike’s Roast Beef And Provolone sub in a tub that can be found on the store-made sandwich. And even more, if I want. I can make this my way. I chop the lettuce and tomatoes the day before. On the day of lunch I just cut up some meat and cheese, add a little salt and pepper and I’m ready! Oh yeah! Dressing! For the dressing I just grab whatever suits my fancy! This isn’t complicated. Just a nice lunch.

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.
