Ingredients You’ll Need:
Before you start, gather the following ingredients to ensure your Italian Sub Squares are as delicious as they are delightful:
2 cans of crescent roll dough sheets: This will form the base and top of your squares. If dough sheets are unavailable, regular crescent roll dough can work; just pinch the seams together.
8 ounces of sliced provolone cheese: This cheese melts beautifully and offers a mild, creamy taste.
¼ pound each of sliced deli meats: This includes pepperoni for a spicy kick, ham for sweetness, and Genoa salami for a touch of garlic and pepper.
12 ounces of roasted red bell peppers, drained and thinly sliced: These add a slight tang and sweetness.
½ cup of canned sliced pepperoncini, drained: For crunch and a mild heat.
1 large egg: This will help bind the pesto and cheese topping.
1 tablespoon of prepared pesto: Adds a rich basil flavor. You can use store-bought or homemade pesto.
1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese: For a salty, nutty finish.
