Step 1
Soften the cream cheese in the microwave for about 15 seconds. Then, mix it together with the olive oil and italian seasoning. It should have a consistency similar to mayonnaise. Set this aside.Step 2
Prepare a large (approximately 12 oz) cucumber by removing the ends. Slice the cucumber through the middle both ways, leaving you with 4 pieces. Use a spoon to remove the wet seeds and core. Pat the cucumbers dry with a paper towel as well.Step 3
Spread your cream cheese spread into the centers of 2 pieces of cucumber. Top the cream cheese off with about 3 banana pepper rings each.Step 4
For each cucumber sub, lay 3 slices of deli meat on top of each other (1 salami, 1 capicola, 1 pepperoni), roll them up, and place them in the center of the empty cucumber halves.Step 5
Sandwich your cucumbers together so you have 2 long subs. At this point, you may bite into them and enjoy. You may also slice each sub in half again, leaving you with 4 smaller portions for snacking. Enjoy!
