Ham and Cheese Sliders

I have seen this recipe or variations of it over the years, always getting rave reviews.  Why didn’t I try it sooner?  I am the master of the post-it note in magazine and cookbooks, only to forget why it’s there, or what book it’s in.  I am also known for pinning things I am sure I won’t forget, then 100 pins on my Pinterest boards later, and *poof!* it’s gone.  I think that comes with age.  Not that I am crazy about the whole aging thing, but I mean, it sure beats the alternative, am I right?

You have all heard me talk of my buddy, Brandi, from Aunt Bee’s Recipes.  She and I have become super good friends over the last year or so.  I am grateful for her wit, and that she knows when I rant about things only a food blogger can rant about to another food blogger that she understands where I am coming from.  Typically to commiserate with me, make me laugh with some meme that she googled and texted me with Ninja-like speed, just to make me smile.  I would be remiss though to not say that I (and my family) is  grateful for her recipes!

So, when I saw these on her blog one day that I was creeping on her, I knew they would be perfect, not only for a pool party I was having for my kids and their friends, but for upcoming tailgates! YES!

 Swiss cheese and good quality ham are loaded onto King’s Hawaiian rolls before baking.  This is a great idea to use that leftover holiday ham!  Most of the recipes, including Brandi’s calls for Poppy Seeds.  I am not a fan, so I left them off.  The recipe puts them as “optional” so you can include if you’d like!
