Description
Make this creamy, cold Italian Hoagie Dip for your next party. It captures all the flavors of an Italian sub sandwich in an easy, layered appetizer format.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 ounces thinly sliced provolone cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces thinly sliced ham, chopped
- 4 ounces thinly sliced Genoa salami, chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
- 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
- 1/4 cup finely diced tomato
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Mix in the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and black pepper until fully combined. This is your dressing base.
- In a separate bowl, combine the chopped ham and salami.
- In a large, clear serving dish, spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly across the bottom.
- Layer the chopped deli meats over the cream cheese layer.
- Sprinkle half of the shredded provolone cheese over the meat layer.
- Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture over the provolone layer.
- Top with the remaining provolone cheese.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to blend.
- Just before serving, top the dip with the shredded lettuce, diced red onion, diced tomato, and fresh parsley.
- Serve cold with crackers, sturdy chips, or bread slices.
Notes
- You can prepare the cream cheese base and chop the meats one day ahead of time. Assemble the layers, but wait to add the fresh vegetables until right before serving.
- For a spicier kick, add 1/4 cup of chopped pepperoncini peppers to the meat layer.
- This dip works well as a chopped sandwich salad; serve it in lettuce cups for a lower-carb option.
