Even though I screwed this up royally, it still came out wonderfully . It pays to read the directions through first so you don’t make the mistakes that I did . I didn’t realize that the layers were being repeated and had to disassemble the best I could . I ended up with two layers of ham, salami, provolone, and egg with one layer of the spinach and mushroom mixture and sweet peppers . I only used one jar of the sweet peppers as I think it might’ve overpowered it and I thought it was perfect the way I did it . Also instead of hard salami I did use Genoa, which is my preference . The end result was very delicious and very rich ! Made by a Feed Bag for Susie’s World Tour 2019.1Reply
