Why You Will Love This Recipe

The air fryer is great for making this sandwich crispy and warm. It only takes 5 minutes in the air fryer.

I like to use Swiss cheese instead of mozzarella since it's lower in lactose and I can't eat dairy.

Sometimes if I'm really lazy, I will make this sandwich without the red onions and bananas. Especially if I don't have them.

You can find all these ingredients at Aldi.

Then there’s the sandwich which you can pick and choose what types of meat and cheese go on top. For this I used provolone cheese, salami, and prosciutto. All these ingredients were purchased at Aldi btw, so if you’re looking for ways to cut back on money right now check out that grocery store. 

I used my air fryer to get the bread all toasted and the cheese melted. Then I added the tomatoes and salad on top.  This sandwich blew me away and 

What Ingredients do I need for Grinder Salad Sandwich 

In this section, you can find substitutes or suggestions for certain check here

Mayonnaise  - Mayonnaise is the ultimate condiment for just about anything and there are different types of it. Only use the reduced-fat mayonnaise if you’re on a special diet of some sort. 

Red Wine Vinegar  - If you don’t have red wine vinegar sub white wine vinegar, sherry vinegar, apple cider vinegar, or even lemon juice 

Garlic  - Chopped fresh garlic can take some time to chop so I often always use the freshly minced garlic that comes already made in a jar. 

Red Pepper Flakes - Red pepper flakes are small pieces of dried hot peppers, typically made from cayenne, that are crushed or ground into small flakes.

Banana Peppers are yellow peppers usually found in a jar near the condiments and dressings at the grocery stores. You will have to drain them for the recipe. 

Red Onions or shallots - thinly sliced 

Thinly Sliced Tomatoes 

Cheddar, Provolone, or Swiss Cheese Slices

Good Artisian crusty bread with your type of favorite meats. I used provolone, salami, and prosciutto.
