Key Ingredients:
1. Bologna
Quality Matters: Choose thick-cut, high-quality bologna for the best flavor and texture. Look for deli-fresh bologna or go for a spiced version if you like a bit of kick.
Prevent Curling: Cutting an “X” in the center of each slice helps the bologna fry evenly and prevents it from curling up.
Substitutes: If you’re looking for a variation, try mortadella or even sliced turkey for a lighter twist.

2. Bread
Choose a Good Bread: Classic white bread or potato bread works well here, but you can also use sourdough or brioche for extra flavor.
Toasting Tip: For a more golden, crispy exterior, you can use butter in the skillet instead of cooking spray.

3. Mayonnaise
Creamy and Tangy: Spreading mayonnaise on the bread gives a tangy flavor and keeps the sandwich moist.
Alternative Spreads: If you’re not a fan of mayo, try Dijon mustard or a thin spread of pesto for a unique twist.
