This Deli Turkey Ovensub is made with buttered sub buns stacked with deli turkey breast meat and cheese. Oven toasted and topped with crisp lettuce, thinly sliced tomatoes and onions, and deli mayo for the sauce. Since the sandwich meat is only deli turkey breast, each foot-long sub is topped with 12 slices of deli turkey breast meat each. Serve them up as footlongs for 4 servings or as 6-inch sub with sides for up to 8 servings.
