Hoagie Dip

Hoagie Dip is the perfect appetizer that everyone loves. So full of flavor and easy to make this is a real crowd-pleaser.
I came across this recipe on Tik Tok and knew I had to recreate it. I made it for a party and it was a hit! Everyone went nuts for it.
All your favorite sub fixings in a bowl and you just use soft slices of italian bread to pile the dip on and it is amazing!
This dip also makes a great quick lunch, you can even skip the bread and just eat this with a fork for a low carb version.
You can make this hoagie dip ahead of time and it gets better as it marinates. If you want you can add the lettuce right before serving to keep it crisp.
Hoagie dip is great anytime of year but is a great cool dip in the summer and spring, but believe me you will be making this year round.
Now this started as a dip but I will tell you sometimes I make it at the beginning of the week and just load it into a sub roll anytime I want a delicious, flavorful sandwich.
I love that this dip is super customizable, you can use your favorite mix of deli meat, add whatever veggies you like. You can serve it with bread or crackers. We love it!
