The Dagwood

• 1 loaf Italian bread
• 8 dried figs
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 12 lb sliced ham
• 12 lb sliced deli turkey
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 4 slices monterey jack cheese
• olive oil
• oregano

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Butter bread and lightly toast.
3. Thinly slice the figs removing stems.
4. Cut loaf horizontally down the middle.
5. Spread all of the cream cheese on both sides of the bread.
6. Layer half of the figs, all of the ham (folded in half and overlapping across the sandwich), and turkey (layered same way as the ham).
7. Add a small amount of olive oil and oregeno to taste.
8. Add all of the slices of cheddar and jack cheese on top.
9. I criss cross them like a checker board.
10. Finally top with the remaining figs and put the top of the loaf on.
11. Cut vertically into 4-5 slices and serve.
12. Best served fresh while the bread is still warm from the toasting, but if you refrigerate and eat later, microwaving quickly (about 10-15 seconds) seems to do the trick.
