Ultra Low-Point Version
All the salty, tangy, cheesy goodness of an Italian sub—just without the heavy bread and oily dressing. This version still has plenty of ham, pepperoni, creamy dressing, pepperoncini, and cheese, so it looks and tastes like the loaded salad in the photo while keeping the WW Points much lower.
