HAWAIIAN HAM SANDWICHES



Hawaiian Ham Sandwiches image

I've made these sandwiches many times for family and friends, and they've always been a hit. I often get asked for the recipe. The pineapple is what gives them a Hawaiian flair - we think they're a real treat. I have three grown children and enjoy cooking for them and the grandchildren when they come to visit.

Hawaiian Bread Ham & Cheese Rolls image

Very easy and very yummy appetizer. These can be made ahead of time and ready to pop into the oven minutes before serving. Trust me, these will be gone minutes after you set the plate down! There are similar recipes on the Zaar, but this one has all the yummy buttery goodness on the inside, not the outside, of the roll...so no messy fingers!

Time 25m

Yield 24 rolls, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 packages hawaiian bread dinner rolls (12 rolls or pkg)
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
2 tablespoons grated onions
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
12 -15 slices deli ham (more if you want a thicker sandwich)
8 -10 slices swiss cheese (more if you like it cheesy)

Steps:

  • Combine softened butter, mustard, grated onion, poppy seeds, and Worcestershire sauce to form a spread.
  • Without separating the rolls, slice the rolls horizontally. Spread the butter mixture on both slices -- inside, not outside. Layer the ham and cheese on bottom slices. Top with the top slices.

  • Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until heated and cheese is melted. Just pop the foil packets into the oven. That easy!

Tips:

  • If you don't have teriyaki sauce, you can make your own by combining soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and ginger.
  • For a more authentic Hawaiian flavor, use Hawaiian sweet rolls instead of regular hamburger buns.
  • If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked ham. Just be sure to heat it through before assembling the sandwiches.
  • For a vegetarian version of this sandwich, use tofu or tempeh instead of ham.
