SONNY'S STEAK HOAGIE

Steps:

• For the hoagies:
• Preheat frying pan over medium-high heat. Cut the hoagie rolls horizontally to open up and make a pocket. Add the blended oil to the pan and stir in the onions. Put the steak on top of onions and add 1/2-ounce of the butter. Cover the pan for 2 1/2 minutes. The meat should have a cooked appearance on top and rare underneath. Using a fork and spatula separate steak from the onions. When the meat is cooked add the salt, remaining butter, and provolone. Cover to the pan to melt the cheese. Divide the steak mixture among the hoagie rolls and serve. If you like, you can add the optional ingredients to the steak mixture before serving.

SUNNY'S SPICY SEATTLE HOAGIE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, fold the cream cheese and adobo sauce together until the mixture is a uniform color. Transfer to a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Heat a grill pan to medium-high heat. Add the onions, drizzling with olive oil and seasoning with salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, tossing, until the slices are tender and golden on the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Add the sausages to the grill split-side down and grill, flipping once, until cooked through and charred, 8 to 10 minutes.
• To assemble the hoagies, add a split sausage to the bottom piece of each bun. Remove the cream cheese mixture from the refrigerator and cut a hole in the corner of the bag. Press the bag to squeeze equal amounts of the mixture down the center of each sausage. Top with the grilled onions, a squirt of mustard and the bun tops.

SUNNY'S SPICY SPINACH PANZANELLA

Steps:

• Toast the baguette cubes: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, add the baguette cubes and drizzle over the olive oil. Toss until the bread is coated. Sprinkle over a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper then toss again. Pour onto a nonstick baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden on all sides, making sure to remove and toss in 3 to 4 minute intervals. This should take 12 to 14 minutes. Remove and allow the cubes to cool slightly before tossing back into the large bowl.
• Make the vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, combine the mustard, lemon zest and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the jalapenos and onions and allow them to soak in the vinaigrette for 10 minutes.
• Build the salad: To the large bowl of toasted baguette cubes, add the baby spinach, black olives and tomatoes. Toss gently. Pour over the vinaigrette and toss until combined. Serve at room temperature.
