If your growling stomach sounds like a caged animal, you can satiate that ravenous beast without having to scrub a bunch of pots and pans afterwards.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A crusty hoagie bun
Sliced cheeses
Sliced cold cuts
Thinly sliced cucumber
Thinly sliced tomato
Mayonnaise or sandwich dressing
Romaine lettuce
Sprouts
Bacon
An olive
A frilly toothpick
Fresh herbs (optional)
Salsa (optional)
Guacamole (optional)

Step 1: Slice bun

Slice the bun lengthwise. Dig a trench through the center of both halves with your fingers.

Step 2: Pile on meats and cheeses

Fill the trenches with your choice of fresh meats and cheeses to form a protective moisture barrier to the bread.

Step 3: Add cucumber and tomato

Add the cucumber and tomato slices to balance the salty bite of the meat and cheese.

Tip: Pack your ingredients separately and construct your sandwich on site if you take your lunch to work or school. This preserves freshness and protects against soggy bread.

Step 4: Drizzle mayo or dressing

Drizzle on the mayo or dressing of your choice. Be gentle -- you don't want to turn your sandwich into an oily mess.

Tip: Flavor the mayo with fresh herbs, such as basil or oregano, or use salsa or guacamole for a change of pace.

Step 5: Top with lettuce or sprouts

Top your sandwich with romaine lettuce and sprouts for a refreshing crunch.

Step 6: Add bacon and olive

Add crumbled bacon for extra flavor. Spear the olive with the toothpick and stick it through your sandwich to hold it together.

Step 7: Let sandwich rest

Let the sandwich rest for 10 minutes at room temperature to let the flavors meld together. Unless you can't wait -- then dig in!
