Instructions
1. Make a bed of lettuce on your platter.
2. Arrange the vegetables on top of the lettuce bed. Layer green bell pepper, then red bell pepper, then cucumber and finally tomato.
3. Then arrange the extra sharp cheese and pepperoni.
4. To make the meat rolls, layer the following meats (2 slices at a time) on a cutting board: prosciutto, provolone, salami, then capicola. Carefully roll the meats together and cut into thick slices. Arrange the meat rolls on top of everything else.
