Make these Appetizer Sandwiches with frozen dinner rolls and then top them with your favorite sandwich items. For these sandwiches I mixed together mayonnaise and whole grain mustard then added roasted red peppers, sliced pepper jack cheese and ham. For fun I topped some with a green olive and some with pickles.

Now you can make your own slider sized buns! These are so much better than the pre-made ones you buy at the store plus they are REALLY easy and cheap to make.

Spray regular size muffin tin cups with cooking spray; add the frozen rolls and cover with a clean kitchen towel to thaw (about 30 minutes). NOTE: DO NOT LET THEM RISE Once the rolls have thawed, cut them in half and re-roll them into balls.

Place them in prepared mini muffin tin cups, cover with a clean kitchen towel to rise (about 2 hours) and bake.

Great idea! I’m having a First Communion party at the beginning of May. My sil and I were thinking about offering sandwiches. I love the idea of making my own rolls because it’s so hard to find the smaller rolls.

I make homemade sliders…like Krystal Burgers, or White Castle. The hard part is finding suitable buns. I will try these next time! I saw your post on Foodie Friday. I am now following your blog. Patsy

I’m a bit confused…you thaw the rolls, then cut in half and roll into a ball. So now you have twice as many rolls? Just making sure I got it right. thanks

  Hi Cindy, Yes, It’s so you end up with small slider rolls. 🙂

  Hi Miranda, Looks like ham, cheese, roasted red peppers and mayo with some whole grain mustard mixed together.
