Ham and Cheese Sliders
recipe from Vanilla Kitchen
2 TB dried minced onions
1 TB Dijon mustard (I used 2 TB)
2 TB poppy seeds
I used a couple dashes of Worcestershire sauce
1 stick melted butter
1 dozen dinner rolls (We use Sara Lee)
1/2 pound ham
1/2 pound thinly sliced Swiss cheese (We use baby swiss)
Preheat oven to 325°.
In a small mixing bowl mix onion, mustard, poppy seeds, and melted butter.
Leaving the dinner rolls intact, slice them open so that you have one solid top and bottom. Don’t slice each one open, but rather as a whole.
Place the bottom half on a baking sheet or in a 9×13 inch baking pan, the pan size will depend on choice of rolls.
Line the bottom half of the rolls with cheese slices and ham.
Return the top part of the rolls and drizzle the butter mixture evenly over top.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Use a sharp knife to separate the sandwiches.
I started by folding the bag over on the crease and cutting off the top portion so the turkey wouldn't be too big.
I then folded over the open top of the bag about 1/2 inch in order to staple the feathers on later.
Big Brother carefully decorated turkey faces using his markers by drawing eyes, beak and waddle on each bag.
He also helped fill each bag with a package of cookies and a few mini Hershey bars. I used my paper cutter to cut strips of construction paper to use as feathers. We simply folded the paper strips in half and stapled them to the back of the bag.
Big Brother personalized them by writing each of his classmate's names on their turkey. He had so much fun and is so proud of his creation. He can't wait to take them to school in the morning!
