Muffaletta With The MIL

I have some very fortunate things in my life. A good deli, fresh bread and a Mother-In-Law who lives in Louisiana. These all came together this week in my attempt to produce the elusive Muffaletta. I do not claim this to be the 'Central Grocery' muffaletta. But in a pinch, it is pretty damn good.

Bread (Use the bread recipe from May 22. Instead of the toppings use sesame seeds or keep the topping and change my life.)
6 slices Cappicola Ham
6 slices Mortadella (it's kinda like bologna)
6 slice Genoa Salami
6 slices Mozzarella
6 slices Provolone
1/2 cup Olive Salad ( order on line or try a specialty grocer, if you don't have an awesome MIL who will bring it to you)

Slice round loaf of bread in half, making one big sandwich. Layer all above items onto half of bread. Replace top. Cut into 4 wedges. Share with husband and MIL. Fight over last piece (or send home with MIL). 
Serve with homemade baked sweet potato fries salted and sprinkled with cumin.
