Savory sandwich ring

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 packs (11 oz each) refrigerated French bread dough
3 Garlic gloves, pressed
½ teaspoon Each: dried oregano leaves and dried basil leaves
8 ounces Thinly sliced deli meat (we had turkey ham, turkey breast and hard salami)
4 ounces Thinly sliced cheese such as: Muenster, Swiss or American
2 cups Lettuce, chopped
6 tablespoons Italian salad dressing, divided
1 medium Each: onion, green bell pepper, and tomato
½ cup Pitted ripe olives

Directions

This was prepared and served at a "Pampered Chef" party that I went to a couple of weeks ago. Of course, the purpose of cooking things at the *party* is to sell their kitchen products, but every one of the recipes she made was delicious. So, for a buck I bought the cookbook from which they came (Season's Best Recipe Collection, Spring/Summer 1997)!! Here is the sandwich we enjoyed:

Preheat oven to 350~F. Place dough seam side down on 15" Baking Stone (a cookie sheet would work also), pinching ends together to form circle. Cut six to eight diagonal slashes (½-inch deep) on top of dough with Serrated Bread Knife; spray with vegetable oil using Kitchen Spritzer. Press garlic over top of bread dough circle with Garlic Press, spreading evenly with Skinny Scraper. Sprinkle with oregano and basil. Bake 26-30 minutes or until deep golden brown. Immediately remove from stone to non-stick cooling rack; cool completely.

Meanwhile, chop lettuce into thin strands using Garnisher. Using Vario-Slicer thinly slice onion, green pepper, and tomato. Slice olives using Egg Slicer Plus. To assemble sandwich, cut bread in half horizontally using Serrated Bread Knife. Cover bottom half of bread ring with overlapping meat slices. Top with cheese slices and lettuce. Spoon 2 Tbsp.

salad dressing over circle of lettuce. Layer onion, green pepper, and tomato slices over the lettuce. Top with olives. Spread bread with ¼ cup salad dressing over cut side of bread top using Pastry Brush; place over sandwich. Cut into wedges and serve.

Sorry for the gratuitous mention of the Pampered Chef products, but since I'm copying from their cookbook, I thought I'd better copy exactly. Posted to TNT - Prodigy's Recipe Exchange Newsletter by BLAdams96@... on May 6, 1997
