Grilled deli sandwiches

I bought a magazine the other day that you have to get if you see it. It's a Taste of Home magazine and it's called Fun Food. There's cookies decorated as people at the beach on the cover. It is filled with really good recipes. If you don't get it, I'll just have to fill the blog with recipes. This is the first one I've tried from the magazine. It was so good. It tastes like something from Quiznos. The only differences I had was I didn't use red pepper and I used Provolone instead of Swiss because I had some Provolone on hand. I also used olive oil instead of vegetable oil. I'm sure you can sub lots of other meats and cheeses and it would still be really good. Here's the recipe. Enjoy!

1 medium onion, sliced
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 cup julienned green pepper
1 cup julienned sweet red pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
12 slices sourdough bread
1/2 pound each thinly sliced deli ham, smoked turkey and pastrami
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
6 slices process American cheese
6 slices Swiss cheese
In a large skillet saute the onion, mushrooms, and peppers in oil until tender. Layer six bread slices with ham, turkey, pastrami, bacon, vegetables and cheese; top with remaining bread. Wrap each sandwich in foil. Grill, covered over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until heated through.

That looks sooooo good! I love taste of home magazines but I haven't tried anything of there's yet. I'll have to track down the one you mentioned. Do you use a panini grill, or just a forman?

I used the outdoor grill. And the sandwiches were huge, I couldn't finish mine. I made three and they took up the whole bottom rack of the grill. And my picture looks way better than the one in the magazine. That's a first!

wow nice. I can't wait to try this!! :) also, I like provolone better than swiss, so i think I might do the same as you. Same thing with the oil. I don't have vegetable oil, but I have olive oil :)
