I had the dads over for Father's day and thought, what's better then some home made subs? I usually pick up homemade challah from the local Jewish deli, you may recall the French toast I've made in the past. This time I had two giant loafs! I decided to make an Italian and a turkey BLT.

I went to the deli and got some fresh sliced oven gold turkey, honey ham, provolone and yellow American. I also got a pack of sliced salamis from Costco. There are just some things you need sliced fresh if you ask me.

I also cooked some bacon on a skillet and left it on a paper towel to dry.

I sliced each loaf from the long end down. Here is the important part, the challah bread is a little more bread then you may want for a sub, so I scooped out the middle portions on the Italian.

For the turkey BLT, I should have sliced a out a piece of the bread, so instead of 1 cut, made 2 and threw out the middle portion. The loaf proved to be a little to much bread to meat ratio, but for next time now I know!

Then added all the fixins and we all dug in!
