Millionaire Bologna Sandwich is my twist on the classic bologna sandwich. Delicious and easy to make with creative toppings.
THE INGREDIENTS
Sweet Hawaiian Sub Rolls are soft inside and crusty outside.
The sweet taste pairs well with salty (mild) beef bologna.
HOW TO PREP BOLOGNA FOR FRYING
This recipe calls for four slices of beef bologna.
If your preferred brand has the red casing around each slice, remove and discard before frying.
Rinse slices and pat dry with paper towels.
Place four slits around the bologna (as pictured) so it remains flat while frying.
If it is not slit around the side, the fried bologna will form a bowl shape.
COOKING TIP: Beef bologna is slightly salty. To decrease the sodium content, fill skillet with water, add bologna. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat. Discard the water. Wipe the bologna slices dry with paper towels before frying as directed in the recipe.
THE OLIVE OIL
I prefer to fry in olive oil because it doesn’t change the bologna’s taste.
Much better than using olive oil in my opinion.
HOW TO FRY BOLOGNA
Drizzle olive oil in a large skillet.
Warm over medium heat until the oil is hot (1-2 minutes).
Cook bologna until edges have reached desired doneness.
Bologna cooks very fast. Stay by the stove to avoid burning.
Drain fried bologna slices on paper towels.
HOW TO MAKE THE SANDWICH
Lightly toast the inside of one Hawaiian Sub Sandwich roll in an ungreased skillet on top of the stove. This step is optional.
Slather inside of roll with mayo, yellow mustard (as shown below), or whatever you prefer.
WAVY LIGHTLY SALTED POTATO CHIPS
Wavy lightly salted potato chips are perfect on the Millionaire Bologna Sandwich.
Their crisp texture and flavorful crunch add another of level of deliciousness.
WHAT IS GREEN LEAF LETTUCE?
Green Leaf lettuce is the general name provided for dozens of varieties that produce semi-frilled, loose-leaf lettuces. Read more about it here.
Rinse a large leaf and pay dry before placing on the Millionaire Bologna Sandwich. The pretty ruffled edges make it look pretty and tasty.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Top with a layer of green leaf lettuce with the pretty ruffles pointing outside sandwich.
Complete the sandwich with a final layer of four or more wavy, lightly salted potato chips.
ANOTHER CREATIVE SERVING SUGGESTION (NOT PICTURED)
Layer the sandwich with homemade chili topped with coleslaw.
ENJOY!

Arham, I hope you enjoy. There are several different types of bologna (chicken, turkey, beef, mixture of chicken & pork). I prefer all beef bologna. The best in my opinion. Chicken and turkey are very popular!
