Instructions

1. 1Slice the 1 loaf of Cuban bread into 4 equal portions, then slice each portion horizontally to create a top and bottom half for each sandwich.
2. 2Spread 4 tablespoons of yellow mustard evenly on the inside of both the top and bottom halves of all 4 sandwich portions.
3. 3On the bottom half of each sandwich, layer about 113 g of roasted pork, about 57 g of ham, 2 slices of dairy-free Swiss cheese, and 1/8 cup of pickles.
4. 4Place the top half of the bread onto each sandwich, completing the assembly.
5. 5Brush the outside of each of the 4 assembled sandwiches with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil.
6. 6Heat a panini press or a large skillet over medium heat, between 175°C and 190°C.
7. 7Place the sandwiches onto the hot panini press or skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, pressing down firmly if using a skillet, until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the dairy-free Swiss cheese is melted.
8. 8Remove the sandwiches from the heat, slice them in half, and serve immediately.
