Layered Torta with Ham, Provolone, Spinach, and Herbs
Time: 2 1/2 hours, plus 4 hours to chill and cool. This stunning sandwich pie is loaded with flavor—a special dish that's easier to make than it looks. You can assemble it a day ahead, then bake it the morning of the picnic. To prevent a soggy crust, be sure to dry the peppers and spinach by blotting with paper towels.
