If you’re needing to feed a hungry crowd (or just your family) on short notice, this is the perfect Italian club sandwich. An oversized toasted sesame loaf, sandwiched with a homemade tangy salad, salami, thick sliced pepperoni, honey ham and sharp cheeses makes for an easy meal.
Everyone who eats this Italian club sandwich is sure to give you high fives and props for re-creating a favorite of every deli. By adding the tangy salad, you have a unique homemade treat! Anything homemade is just better, am I right?!
An added benefit to this Italian sub is that it’s made in minutes. In the amount of time it takes the bread to toast and melt the cheese in the air fryer or under the broiler, you can make the salad dressing and be ready to eat.

Start by toasting the bread. Once complete smother on your mayo and mustard and pile with cheese. Then throw back in the air fryer or broiler to get some gooey and melty cheese.
While you are waiting for the cheese to melt, make sure to put your salad together. Finally, layer the meats, add pepperocini, and finish with the salad. Remember, the salad and dressing do not keep, so assemble right at the time of serving.
