Bella Hadid Sandwich Recipe– This sandwich went viral on TikTok and for a good reason! We are making the viral Bella Hadid sandwich recipe that combines basil aioli, balsamic vinaigrette, turkey, salami, and all the fixings.

WHAT IS THE BELLA HADID SANDWICH RECIPE?
In September 2022, Bella and her friend went on a picnic and sent the internet into a frenzy. People wanted to know what was in the sandwich. She posted a second video in early October as a follow-up, and that’s what we are making today.
WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS RECIPE

- Bread: Any sandwich bread will do; we used French bread because that’s what we had on hand. You can also use a soft baguette or hoagie.
- Basil Aioli: This is my favorite part of the sandwich; the aioli contains basil, mayonnaise, garlic, mustard, and lemon juice.
- Balsamic Vinaigrette: Make a quick vinaigrette using olive oil, balsamic glaze, salt, oregano, red pepper flakes, pepper, and dried basil.
- Protein: Fill the sandiwich with thinly sliced deli turkey and salami slices.
- Cheese: In one video, Hadid made the sandwich with brie, and in another, she did it with provolone- so it’s safe to say there is room for experimentation.
- Toppings: Diced red onions, thinly sliced iceberg lettuce, pepperoncinis, and fresh tomatoes finish the sandwich.
