Directions
-
Preheat the oven if toasting is desired, otherwise prepare a clean work surface.
-
Using a serrated bread knife, carefully slice the oval loaf horizontally into sixteen 1/2-inch thick slices, cutting through the top and sides but leaving the bottom crust intact to hold the loaf together.
-
Prepare the Waldorf mixture by combining 1/4 cup lemon yogurt, 1/4 teaspoon curry powder, 1 chopped medium apple, and 1 chopped stalk of celery in a small bowl.
-
Open the loaf like a book and lay out the first layer of fillings on the bottom half of the loaf.
-
Evenly distribute half of the lettuce leaves, thinly sliced onion, 1/4 pound thinly sliced fully smoked ham, 1/4 pound thinly sliced cooked turkey, and 4 ounces sliced provolone cheese over the bread.
-
Spoon the prepared Waldorf apple-celery yogurt mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
-
Press the top half of the loaf down gently onto the fillings to secure the layers.
-
Wrap the loaf tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and to firm up for easier slicing.
-
When ready to serve, carefully cut the loaf vertically between the unfilled slices to create individual sandwich portions.
-
Serve immediately and enjoy the combination of savory meats and sweet-tart fruit dressing.
