Bring a little nostalgia to lunch with these copycat Kmart Subs made with your favorite lunch meat, cheese, and toppings (all wrapped in plastic wrap, of course!) A NOSTALGIC LUNCH RECIPE So, way back when I worked at a local credit union, I used to get these Kmart Subs for lunch a lot. Kmart was right across the street and it was a steal of a deal when I’d grab a sub. You’d get the deli sub, some chips, and a fountain drink all for $2.99. That’s unheard of nowadays! Kmart would make the subs in the morning, wrap them in plastic and put them into the cooler. I’d pop over on my lunch break, grab one and go! I miss those days! All the flavors melded nicely together since they were chilling in the plastic wrap for a couple of hours before I came along. It’s a great combination of flavors, perfect for a make-ahead lunch or for a picnic! FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:  Can I add other condiments? Of course you can! When making these subs, I just kept them like the original. I don’t know why, but my Kmart never added mayonnaise. But, they did put the mayo packets on the side so you could add them yourself. Any tips for assembling these Kmart Subs? The bun can be kind of hard to close up with all the fillings. I used a butter knife to help keep all the toppings in while I closed it up, then it was easier to squish down and wrap. Can I make these ahead of time? Yes, just like Kmart did, you can make these in the morning, then wrap them and keep them in the fridge until lunch time. I prefer them that way. Can I make these for tomorrow? I do suggest eating these the same day that you make it. They may become mushy (because of the lettuce and tomato) if left in the fridge for too long. Or if you know they will be in the refrigerator for more than one day, just don’t add the lettuce and tomatoes until ready to eat.  Can I use other deli meat? Yup! Not a fan of any of the original meats used on these subs? Use whatever you enjoy and have on hand. How to store leftovers? These subs are best the day you make them. I’d eat them the same day and not keep them. I also would not try to freeze them.
