Primanti Brothers sandwich


The homemade Primanti Brothers sandwiches were a hit! I loved mine!
My sandwich was layered with
Italian bread
on the bottom slice of bread- spread some diced cherry peppers
half of an avocado lightly sprinkled with salt
French fries
Cole slaw- recipe below adapted from epicurious.com
a few slices of thinly sliced onion
Sliced tomatoes lightly sprinkled with salt and pepper

Serve with a dill pickle on the side
If Whole Foods starts to carry Field Roast again, then I would add a few slices of it inbetween the bottom slice of bread and the cherry pepper spread. I considered adding some fakin' bacon but loved this sandwich as prepared.
