ingredients

1 green bell pepper, seeded and cut into rings
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon dried minced onion
1/2 pound thinly sliced ham
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
1 loaf (14 ounce size) French bread, split lengthwise
4 ounces thinly sliced provolone cheese

directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, saute green pepper and garlic in oil until pepper is crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Toss in dried onion. Remove green pepper, reserving oil mixture in skillet.

Layer ham, tomatoes and green pepper on bottom half of bread. Drizzle oil mixture over top, sprinkle with oregano; top with cheese slices. Cover with top of bread.

Wrap loaf in foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from foil and slice to serve.

NOTE: Grinder, hoagie, and submarine are various names for what some consider the quintessential American dish: the two-fisted sandwich.
