Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 1/2 lb. deli ham thinly sliced (or leftover holiday ham)
  • ½ lb. swiss cheese slices
  • 2 pkg. whole wheat dinner rolls
  • 1/2 cup pesto
  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 medium sweet onion (sliced and sautéed)
  • ½ cup butter
  • 2 Tbsp. prepared mustard
  • 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire
  • 1 Tbsp. poppy seeds
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar

Instruction

  • Heat 2 Tbsp. butter in medium pan. Thinly slice the onion; sauté in the butter for about 5 minutes, or until clear and cooked.
  • Line the pan(s) with foil.
  • Leaving the (24) rolls attached, horizontally slice the top off; set aside. Place the bottom (attached 24 pieces) rolls in a 9×13 foil-lined baking pan. (You may need to squeeze them into the pan, or use a 9×13 + 8×8 pan:)
  • Spread the pesto evenly over the bottom bread.
  • Next layer on top of the pesto the ham, sautéed onions, and cheese slices.
  • Place the top section of the rolls that you already removed back on top of the sandwich.
  • In a medium sauce pan bring the 1/2 cup butter to a soft boil. Add mustard, worcestershire, poppy seeds, and brown sugar.
  • Pour sauce over the 9×13 sandwiches.
  • Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 20. Remove foil and bake another 10 minutes.
  • Serve hot or cold.
