This was the perfect lunch for my DD and I. She was almost out the door to go to work, and I offered her this. She removed the tomatoes, added some turkey ham and said it was just right! I did use sub rolls instead of the round loaf, and iceberg lettuce instead of the rocket. Thank you so mush Wendy!
