Artichoke and Basil Hero Sandwich

"This is a killer sandwich, great to make on football Sunday for the guys! Add in some Italian-style cold cuts if desired. Plan ahead, the basil/Parmesan mixture has to be prepared 8-24 hours in advance and chilled. Prep time does not include refrigeration time for the basil mixture."

directions

  • To make the basil/parmesan mixture: (this mixture can be doubled if desired) in a blender or food processor bowl combine fresh basil, Parmesan cheese, capers, wine vinegar, mustard and garlic cloves; process until almost smooth.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 8-24 hours (overnight is better!).
  • Cut the bread in half lengthwise.
  • Hollow out each half (leaving a 1/2-inch shell).
  • Spread the prepared basil mixture over each bread half, then layer artichoke hearts (at this point you can add in cold cuts if desired) then provolone cheese, tomato then top with spinach.
  • Cover with the bread top.
  • Cut the sandwich crosswise into about 6-8 pieces.

  1. This sandwich was excellent! The spread looked so good that we couldn't wait for the refrigeration time, so I'm sure it will be even better tomorrow. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. Fabulous. Because I have picky eaters, I pureed the artichokes in with the basil/oil/cheese spread. So I had PLENTY of spread. In fact, kids complained that it squished out of the sandwich too easily/much. Oh la dee da. I put on about 5 ounces each of provolone and salami. Used romaine because I have so much in the fridge right now. Fantastic and will definitely make this one again.
