Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the parsley, oregano, cumin, garlic, orange zest and lime zest and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the pork and about 3 tablespoons of the butter mixture and toss to coat.
- Spread some of the remaining butter mixture in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, then place the bottom half of the rolls on the butter. Top the roll bottoms with the ham, then the pork, then the pickle slices and finally the cheese. Spread the mustard on the underside of the roll tops, then lay the roll tops on top of the cheese. Pour the remaining butter mixture over the top of the rolls.
- Cover the baking dish loosely with foil and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Uncover and bake until the top is golden brown, about another 5 minutes.
BANANA CASSEROLE
A Cuban dessert recipe adapted from Bake Until Bubbly by Clifford Wright. This could be adapted to individual ramekins--that way you could downsize the recipe. You could also add more caramel sauce and whipped cream. I have changed this a bit after looking at Chef#296809's excellent suggestions.

CUBAN SANDWICH CASSEROLE
Steps:
- One day ahead place 8 slices of bread (remove crust with electric knife) in bottom of a casserole with 4 slices of cheese, ham, pork, and the other 4 slices of cheese on top. Add sliced pickles. Top with remaining 8 slices bread. Beat eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and mustard powder together. Pour over sandwiches. Refrigerate covered overnight. Remove from refrigerator 1/2 hour before baking.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Mix cereal and melted butter. Spread over sandwiches. Bake for 1 hour.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your casserole will be.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the casserole tough.
- Bake the casserole until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
- Serve the casserole warm or at room temperature. It can be topped with whipped cream, ice cream, or fruit.
Conclusion:
Cuban banana casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up ripe bananas and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
