Preparation / Directions:
In a large bowl, mix together the ingredients for the olive dressing: the olives (pitted and crushed), garlic, pearl onions, pickled vegetables, basil, oregano, red wine vinegar, Balsamic vinegar, and olive oil. Cover and chill overnight. Slice the round loaf of bread horizontally, removing a one-inch deep section from the middle of each half, creating a hollow in both halves. Pour a small amount of the olive dressing juice into the hollow top and bottom sections of the bread. On the bottom bread half, begin layering the cheeses, then alternate layers of meat and cheese until it reaches a height of about three inches. To give your sandwich extra height, fold your meat in half and layer in center of loaf. Top meat and cheese with olive dressing. Cut into wedges and serve. Great when served with red beans and rice!
