Ham and Cheese Sliders

Ahh...October! My favorite month of the year! I love how fall comes in during this month. Some days are chilly....others are quite warm like it is today! Fall also means Football season which I LOVE! I am a huge Colts fan...and for my husband...also a U of M fan. I so look forward to Saturday and Sunday afternoon, where all I have to do is cheer my team on...and eat!

These sliders are perfect for this time of year! They are quick to put together and very tasty. As I was making these this past weekend I was smiling to myself thinking about our little baby growing away in my belly. The recipe calls for you to sprinkle poppy seeds on the tops of the sliders and I was amazed to realize that at one point our baby was only the size of a poppy seed. Now she is just about 3 pounds and full of kicks and jabs all day long! I am more amazed that we will meet her in just 2 short months! Wow!

Anyways...back to the sliders! I hope you enjoy them!
Ham and Cheese Sliders
adapted from Annie's Eats

Ingredients
For sliders:
1 pack of Hawaiian Snack Rolls (there are 4 to a pack)
4 slices of ham
4 slices of provolone cheese
Mayo

For sauce:
3 Tbs melted butter
1/2 Tbs yellow mustard
1/2 tsp dried onion
1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Poppy seeds for sprinkling

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. To assemble sliders, put mayo on each side of slider roll. Place 1 piece of ham and 1 piece of cheese on one side and put the slider together. Place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.
3. To make the sauce combine all ingredients except the poppy seeds into a small bowl and whisk to combine. Drizzle over the sliders. Sprinkle with poppy seeds.
4. Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 2 minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Serve warm.

Last Bite: Super easy and super fast. Feel free to experiment with these as well...I am sure there are some great flavor combos out there! Enjoy!
