  • Start layering your different Italian meats on the pickled vegetables. Then, add a layer of provolone cheese.
  • Sprinkle a handful of shredded iceberg lettuce to cover the cheese layer, top with tomato rings, and drizzle some of the sauce oil-vinegar sauce. Finally, cover with the top half of the bread roll to complete the mini godfather panini.
