Ingredients:
- 2 slices of ham 🍖
- 1 stalk of celery, finely chopped 🌿
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped 🧅
- 1 cup of shredded cheese 🧀
- 1/4 cup of mayonnaise 🥄
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Mix the ham, cheese, celery, and onion with the mayonnaise in a mixing bowl until well combined. This flavorful mixture will be the star of your sandwiches, providing a perfect balance of savory and creamy goodness.
-
Prepare your rolls by slicing them in half, creating a pocket for the delicious filling. If you prefer a more decadent option, you can also use croissants or ciabatta bread for added texture and flavor.
-
Fill each roll generously with the ham and cheese mixture, ensuring that every bite is packed with flavor. Don’t be afraid to pile it on – the more, the merrier!
-
Wrap each filled roll tightly in aluminum foil, sealing in the flavors and moisture to create perfectly gooey sandwiches. This step also helps to keep the sandwiches warm and prevents them from drying out during baking.
-
Bake the wrapped sandwiches in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the rolls are golden brown. The aroma of melted cheese and savory ham will fill your kitchen, tantalizing your taste buds and building anticipation for the delicious meal to come.
-
Serve your hot ham & cheese sandwiches immediately, either whole or sliced into smaller portions for sharing. These sandwiches are best enjoyed hot and fresh from the oven, but they can also be stored in the refrigerator for several days and reheated as needed for quick and easy meals on the go.
Alternative Cooking Method:
- If you’re short on time or prefer a crispier texture, you can also prepare these sandwiches under the broiler. Simply halve the rolls, spread the ham and cheese mixture on top, and broil the halves until golden brown and bubbly. This method creates a deliciously crispy crust while keeping the filling warm and gooey – perfect for satisfying those comfort food cravings!
