sub salad Archives - Dress My Salad

You’re right. It’s not complicated. Simple ingredients. Minimal preparation time. But great, fresh results. Sometimes I get mental block as to what kind of salads I want. What toppings do I want? I found that the easiest way to get around my block is to make subs in a tub. Easy salads made using my favorite sub sandwich toppings. Today I made a Subway oven-roasted turkey and ham sub in a tub. No rocket science involved here. Just a good salad!

Subway Oven-Roasted Turkey And Ham Sub In A Tub

A Little Prep Goes A Long Way

I usually have what I call ‘salad weeks’. Yep, a week of salads. I go to the store and load up on fresh ingredients, then prepare them all at once. Or most of them at least. The items that hold up well are prepared ahead of time. Then I can make my Subway oven-roasted turkey and ham sub in a tub, or whatever variation, in no time at all. I just add a few more ingredients, grab my favorite dressing, and it’s time for dinner (or a side!).

It’s sub in a tub week here and that makes me happy! It’s one of my favorite weeks. Every once in a while I go on a salad-for-lunch (or dinner) kick. No big ole subs for me. Just nice, fresh loaded salads. Now, this ain’t necessarily one of them fru-fru fancy light healthy salads. A guy has gotta eat. Work is hard. I work up an appetite. That’s why I go big when I make my Subway Black Forest Ham sub in a tub. Heavy on the turkey. Heavy on the provolone. Heavier on the ham. Yeah, there’s tomato. And bell pepper too. It’s a salad! And spinach and cucumber! It’s all good. Oh I forgot! Red onion! Love that crunch! I just add my favorite dressing the and I’m a happy guy!

A Little Prep Goes A Long Way

To make things go smoothly when I am having sub in a tub week, I do as much preparing ahead of time as I can. That way when it comes time to make my lunch, such as this Subway Black Forest Ham sub in a tub, I can have it put together in just minutes. I chop a combination of iceberg and green leaf lettuces and put them in a sealable tub with a paper towel to help keep them fresh. Then, I stem a little spinach, chop it loosely and add that in. I add cherry tomatoes because they hold up well. Add chopped bell pepper, sliced red onion and a few slices of cucumber. I cover the container and put it in the fridge overnight.

I could pre-cut my sandwich meats and cheese, but I like doing those the day I am having my salad. Who knows, I might change my mind from the day before about what I want on my salad. So I just wait. It’s not like they take that long to cut!
