Simple and Delicious Slider Sandwiches Recipe

This recipe yields 12 individual slider sandwiches

Any additional notes will be with asterisks under the recipe. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Ingredients:

1 12-count sweet Hawaiian rolls

4 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter

6 Slices of Cheddar Cheese (or more or less depending on preference)

About ½ pound sliced Ham (or more or less depending on preference)*

½ Tablespoon Kinder’s Buttery Steakhouse Seasoning**

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using a serrated knife(I find a large bread knife to be the best knife for this), slice off the top half of the sweet Hawaiian rolls. Place the bottom half of the rolls onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
On the bottom half of the rolls, evenly distribute all the slices of cheese, making sure to reach all edges and corners of the rolls.
Once the cheese is evenly distributed, use the same method with the slices of ham.
After the ham is distributed, place the top half of the rolls back on top.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. It should only take about 30 seconds.
Add the Butter Seasoning to the melted butter, and mix.
Spread the butter mixture over the top of the rolls (using a basting brush is my favorite method for this step), making sure to brush the sides of the rolls, as well.
Place the rolls in the oven, and cook for 15-18 minutes (or to your likeness), depending on your oven. I also recommend rotating the baking sheet halfway through to make sure all sides are cooked evenly.
Slice the sliders into individual sandwiches using the serrated knife, and serve immediately.*** If you wish to add other toppings to the sandwich after it’s cooked, feel free!****

Notes for Slider Sandwiches Recipe:

* Slices of ham can come in so many shapes, sizes, and thicknesses, so mainly go off your preference for how much meat to use. I will say, it is a decent ratio of bread to meat in slider form, so I would recommend using a little more sliced meat than you think you’ll need.

** The Kinder’s Buttery Steakhouse Seasoning has a great flavor and compliments the slider sandwiches by enhancing the butter flavor. It adds flavor without being too spicy or overpowering, so it’s more palatable. Moreover, it elevates the slider sandwiches and gives them a little extra something. I bet you and your family will love it! That being said, it is simple to cover the slider sandwiches with the plane melted butter, and only put seasoning on the ones for those who’d like the seasoning.

*** These are great served immediately. However, if you want to meal prep or have leftovers, you can pack them up and put them in the fridge. Then, when you’re ready to eat again, just reheat them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. They won’t be as crispy as the initial cooking method in the oven, but they are just as delicious!

**** My boyfriend prefers his with some mayonnaise and pickles, whereas I like mine as is, so I just add those afterward to his sandwiches. Needless to say, make it your own. I would just recommend adding the “fresh” toppings (lettuce, tomatoes, etc.) after they’re done cooking.

And just like that, one of the easiest, yet delicious, recipes for slider sandwiches.

A little while back, it became popular to make slider sandwiches. People use many different ingredients, and I love a recipe with an excellent foundation, but then you can customize it to your liking. I’m a picky eater, so I love anything customizable. And slider sandwiches aren’t only customizable, but they’re so simple and delicious!

I put my “version” as the ingredients, but feel free to make it whatever flavor profile you want. I love a good ham and cheese sandwich, so that’s my preferred slider sandwich. It’s a classic for a reason, hits the spot every single time.

The flavor of these slider sandwiches sincerely makes it taste as if you put in way more effort than you actually did, which is my favorite kind of recipe.

That’s what makes them so great when hosting people for all kinds of occasions. Wow, your guests with something so simple, yet so delectable.

Also, it makes a ton of servings. It can be great for any party, holiday, or get-together. Make these for your next watch party for your favorite sports team, for your kid’s next sleepover with friends, or you next Girls’ Night! These are a definite crowd pleaser.

Another recipe I know you, your family, and your partygoers would love is The Absolute BEST Snack Mix for Any Occasion That You Will Absolutely Love! Your kids and their friends wouldn’t be able to resist the delicious flavor, as well. You can’t go wrong!

It only has 5 ingredients, so you can easily swing by the store (or get them as a staple meal in your next grocery haul), literally throw them together, and have an amazing snack, appetizer, or weeknight meal in a pinch. You can’t go wrong!

The cheese gets all melty and gooey since it cooks in the oven. The melted butter slathered all over the top makes the outside of the buns a little crispy and ridiculously delicious. I’m low-key obsessed. And I know you will be too!

As mentioned, it’s perfect for a weeknight meal or meal prepping. I love to take 3 or 4 sliders to work with me; it makes my packed lunch a little more elevated in flavor than just a typical sandwich.

This recipe for Simple and Delicious Buffalo Chicken Wraps is another perfect weeknight meal! They’re sincerely incredible every time! And make for amazing leftovers.

Or those nights when you have zero energy and time and just want to throw something together, but it still tastes good, this is a great option. Then you can pair it with simple sides, such as chips, apple slices, carrot sticks, etc.

This would also be an easy meal to teach your kids how to make. It’s essentially making a sandwich, but better. They could become more independent, gain more confidence in the kitchen, and even make it as an after-school snack for themselves and their friends. This would be perfect for any study session, sleepover, gaming night, or after practice.

Another great recipe to teach your kids would be these Easy and Delicious Taco Bell-inspired Quesadilla with Creamy Chipotle Sauce!

I recently also learned, that it is a great way to use leftover ham and rolls from Holiday leftovers whether it be Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, or any other Holiday celebration. Especially when you need to change the way you eat them. You can only eat a plate of leftovers so many times before you get sick of them. This uses up a ton of leftovers in one fell swoop, and you could even slather on some cranberry sauce if you’d like!

The versatility and ease of these slider sandwiches have made them a staple in my meal rotations. We all have the intention when we go grocery shopping to make these amazing meals, but life happens.

Sometimes we just need a meal we can throw together when we barely have time to think, let alone make an entire meal. Or, for those of us with depression, we need a meal that takes minimal effort.

We all have those moments in our lives, and there’s no shame in that. It doesn’t mean we should eat something boring and tasteless. We deserve these slider sandwiches, for example, that are delicious, buttery, and have irresistible gooey cheese.
