Pesto:
Blend the following in a food processor
6 large garlic cloves
2 C fresh basil leaves, packed
1/2 C fresh parmesan, grated
1/4 C olive oil
1/2 tsp kosher salt


For the Pesto Mayonnaise:
Stir together 1/4 C mayonnaise and 1 T pesto

For the Onion Relish:
1 C red onion, thinly sliced
2 T olive oil
1 T red wine vinegar
1 tsp. fresh chopped oregano
Salt and pepper to taste

For the Sandwich:
1 1lb loaf of bread
6 oz. provolone, thinly sliced
4 oz. coppacola or deli ham, thinly sliced
4 oz. salami, thinly sliced
1 C arugula, stemmed

Trim the loaf of bread on the top crust and bottom crust and trim off ends.  Cut the loaf in the middle horizontally into two long 1/2" slices; preheat grill to low.

Brush tops of each side of bread that will be grill side down with olive oil.  Brush pesto mayonnaise on one slice of bread then layer cheese, meats, red onion relish, and arugula.  Then brush next slice of bread with additional pesto mayonnaise if preferred and place on top and place on grill (or pan on stove).  Put a pie plate on top with a few baking potatoes in it to weigh down the sandwich as it cooks.  Flip to other side after 3 minutes and let cheese melt.  Enjoy!!
