What if the least important part of a traditional muffuletta sandwich is the meat? When I think about this classic sandwich, the olive relish is the first element that comes to mind, with its acidity, saltiness, and spiciness. Next, I think about the bread, which needs to be crusty on the outside but soft on the inside. Sharp provolone is another essential ingredient for me. <br /> <br />With these flavor components in place, I thought it would be fun to swap the cured meats for vegetables. I chose to add homemade roasted red peppers to this sandwich, along with broiled carrots and cauliflower. But I encourage you to experiment with any vegetables you like. <br /> <br />Please note that it can be hard to find authentic muffuletta bread outside of New Orleans. Depending on what bread you end up using, the amounts of each ingredient that you put on the sandwich may change slightly. Use your common sense, and add as much provolone, olive relish, or cauliflower as you like.
