  3. For the hoagie: Mix together the romaine, bell peppers and some vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Cut the roll horizontally, then remove the insides of the top of the roll to create a well. Spread basil mayo on each side.
  5. Place the capicola, mortadella, and salami along the bottom, then top with the provolone. Add the tomatoes, and then top with the olives, pepperoncini and roasted peppers.
  6. Fill the well in the top of the roll with the dressed romaine and bell peppers and form a sandwich. Cut into small slices and serve immediately.

You can purchase a 6 footer at most specialty bread bakeries or perhaps call your local bread bakery and request one. Most are willing to appease their customers.
