Description
This Snakewich Party Sub is a fun, creepy-cute Halloween sandwich that’s perfect for parties—loaded with turkey, cheese, veggies, and serious style.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 hoagie rolls, sliced lengthwise
- 1 cup mayo
- 1½ pounds deli sliced turkey
- 8 ounces sliced cheese (Swiss, cheddar, provolone, or your choice)
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 3 large tomatoes, sliced
- Oil and vinegar (optional)
- Black pepper (optional)
For the face:
- 4 pimento-stuffed olives (for eyes)
- 1 slice cheese (for tongue)
Instructions
- Arrange the rolls: On a large serving board or tray, arrange the 12 hoagie rolls in a curving snake shape. Slightly overlap or angle them to create a snakelike body.
- Spread the mayo: Open each hoagie roll and spread a thin layer of mayo on the inside of the bread.
- Layer the fillings:
- Place slices of turkey evenly across all rolls.
- Add sliced cheese on top of the turkey.
- Layer on shredded lettuce and tomato slices.
- Optional: Drizzle with oil and vinegar and sprinkle with black pepper.
- Close the sandwiches: Fold the top halves of the rolls back over the fillings. Gently press each sandwich to keep them compact.
- Create the snake face:
- Use 2 hoagie roll halves for the snake’s head.
- Press pimento-stuffed olives into the top roll for eyes.
- Cut a forked tongue shape from a slice of cheese and place it at the end of the sandwich to stick out as the tongue.
- Add finishing touches:
- If desired, use green or red lettuce at the tail end to mimic scales.
- Use toothpicks or skewers to hold shape if transporting.
- Serve: Serve as is or slice into individual sections if needed. Perfect with chips, pickles, or a Halloween veggie platter.
Notes
Use different cheeses to make a pattern along the body.
Secure with toothpicks for stability, especially if moving the sub.
