Super Heroes~ A Mighty Sandwich

Super Heroes, or an extra large sandwich, have been popular for years. I remember making these for my mother when she would have gatherings at the house with her coworkers. Layers or deli meat and spinach dip piled on an Italian bread loaf. That was about 1990. Ever since, these sandwiches are a go-to when I need a quick and satisfying meal for a large group or for our family's Friday night dinners.

At the end of the week, we are all looking for a break from our work {whether it be studies, house cleaning or helping parents at school}. A fun dinner and a movie is the way to wind down in our home. I don't worry about being to health conscious as you can see from the following menu.
