Method: 

Saute the pepper and onion in olive oil over medium heat until soft. Add the shrimp and crabmeat and Cajun seasoning, remove from heat when just done. Set aside to cool.

While seafood is cooling, slice the bread in half across the equator. Spread with butter, place on a baking sheet, buttered side up. Bake under the broiler for 2 minutes, or until toasted and brown. Spread the bottom half with the olive salad, evenly layer Havarti cheese on top. Spread the cooled seafood mixture on top of the Havarti cheese, cover with the provolone. Replace the top of the loaf, and place the sandwich on a parchment-covered baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes at 350˚F or until the cheese is melted.

Cut in 1/8 pieces, serve immediately.
