Steps

Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Stir all the olive salad ingredients together in a bowl.
Without pulling the rolls apart, slice the whole sheet in half horizontally with a long serrated or chef's knife. Set the bottom half in the baking dish.
Layer half the provolone over the bottom rolls, then the ham, salami and mortadella, folding the slices to fit.
Spoon the olive salad evenly over the meat, letting extra oil drain off the spoon so the bread doesn't get soggy.
Top with the remaining provolone and set the top half of the rolls back on.
Stir the melted butter with the garlic powder and Italian seasoning and brush it over the tops. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Cover the dish with foil and bake until the cheese starts to melt.
Uncover and bake until the tops are golden and the cheese is fully melted.
Let cool slightly, then cut along the roll lines into sliders.
