Make Ahead Party Sandwich


    A no-fuss, make ahead entree for an informal get-together.

    2 (1-pound) unsliced loaves Italian bread 
    1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened 
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 
    3/4 cup sliced green onion 
    1/4 cup mayonnaise 
    1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 
    1 pound thinly sliced fully cooked ham 
    1 pound thinly slice cooked roast beef 
    12 thin slices dill pickle 
    6 peperoncini, seeded and chopped 

    Cut the bread in half lengthwise. Hollow out top and bottom of loaves, leaving a 1/2-inch shell 
    (discard removed bread or save for another use). 
    Combine cheeses, onions, mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce; spread over cut sides of bread. 
    Layer ham and roast beef on bottom and top halves; place pickles on bottom halves and sprinkle 
    with chopped peperoncini. Gently press halves together. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. 
    To serve, cut into 1 1/2-inch slices. 
    Makes 12 to 14 servings.
