    About the recipe

    Hoagie refers to a long bread roll that is used to make sandwiches. Usually, these rolls piled high with meats, veggies and so on to make a filling hoagie sandwich. Interestingly, there are about 13 different names for this very sandwich in US. Call it a sub, wedge, hoagie, hero, grinder etc.

    I was first introduced to hoagie sandwich at the deli I worked during my Masters. The owner was really nice and she would make me a sandwich with all the veggies she had in the kitchen.

    Vegetarian hoagie sandwiches are a rarity on any restaurant menu. But they are really easy to make at home. Most stores sell hoagie rolls or you can use mini Italian or French bread loaves.

    I use canned artichoke hearts along with lettuce, tomato and red onion. To add flavor to the sandwich, I spread the rolls with mayonnaise and whatever spicy condiment I have on hand. Zhoug sauce, chipotle aioli or even green chutney are some of my favorites.

    Cheese slices make these veggie hoagies even better. I also like adding pickled vegetables like pepperoncini or giardiniera for extra veggie goodness and taste.

    This easy vegetarian sandwich is great for quick quick or dinner. Also it is perfect to pack in a lunchbox. Do try this hoagie recipe and I am sure you will love it as much as we do.

    Expert Tips

    • Look for hoagie rolls to make the recipe. If you can't find them, then use mini Italian or French rolls. Or just cut a long baguette into 6" pieces.
    • I think lettuce, tomato and red onion are a must for this recipe. But feel free to use whatever vegetables you like.
    • You can use canned artichoke hearts in water or the marinated ones. If using the marinated artichokes, you can skip the marinating part since these are already flavored.
    • I love adding a spicy condiment like zhoug sauce, chipotle aioli or even green chutney for a delicious kick.
    • Vegetarian hoagie sandwiches are best served right away.
    • You can prep the onions and the vegetables couple of hours before assembling the sandwich.
    • If you want to make vegan Italian hoagie sub recipe, use vegan mayo and skip the cheese or use vegan cheese slices.
