Chopped Italian Sandwich

This chopped sandwich that became a viral sensation finally caught my eye. I had to try it and I’m glad I did. You get every ingredient in every bite! I made it my way with ingredients I love to use. Now, this isn’t how I would make all my sandwiches moving forward but this is a great option. This chopped Italian sandwich recipe is a great way to make sandwiches for a large party. This sandwich is to taste, so add as much or as little of the ingredients to the mixture.
