Hawaiian Ham & Swiss Sandwiches

Added a Tastefully Simple touch to this recipe, and it came out DELISH!  Original recipe was from www.Heatherlikesfood.com.  It called for adding poppy seeds into the sauce that goes over the rolls, but I knew I'd get nothing but complaints from my family about these...and more importantly - I forgot to buy them at the store - ha!  I think the onion flavor on the rolls was plenty & there enough other sweetness to this recipe that I don't think you need them.  As I noted within the ingredients listing, I think you can get away using half the amount of butter.  Next time I plan to only use 4 Tbsp melted butter as using the full amount did make the bottom roll a little soggy.  They were very tasty though and extremely easy!

Good 'make ahead' recipe for busy spring schedules.



Ingredients
  • 12 King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
  • 12 slices Honey Ham
  • 12 slices Swiss Cheese
  • 1/4 C Mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 8 Tbsp butter, melted  ( NOTE:  I will use 1/2 this next time - I don't think you need this much)
  • 1 tsp Tastefully Simple Onion Onion
  • 1/2 tsp Tastefully Simple Merlot Sauce
  • 1/4 C brown sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°
  2. On a rimmed baking sheet or 9x13 dish, place bottom half of dinner rolls and top with 1 slice of ham and 1 slice of swiss cheese. Spread about 1 tsp of mayonnaise on each top-half of roll and place on top of ham and cheese. 
  3. In a small bowl combine the mustard, melted butter, brown sugar, Onion Onion and Merlot Sauce. Mix until combined and evenly pour over the assembled rolls. Cover with foil and refrigerate until ready to bake.
  4. Bake covered with foil for 10 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until the tops are browned, and cheese is good and melted.
