Rich Man's Ham Sandwich

We made these wonderful sandwiches 
for the first time last December.   

My daughter-in-law, Amy, promptly named them--

Rich Man's Ham Sandwich--

and vowed to never eat a normal ham sandwich ever again!  :)  

It was gooey, decadent and slightly "over the top"!  

I know there are a few variations on this sandwich, but 

we're hoping you'll enjoy our twist on this popular recipe today! 

*******************************************************

Rich Man's Ham Sandwich

• 1 container Alouette Cheese with Garlic & Herbs--
• this is usually found in the deli section with the cheeses--
• (it's a spreadable cheese)
• 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 package (12 count) Hawaiian rolls
• 8 ounces Black Forest deli ham, thinly sliced
• 8 ounces Gruyere, grated
• 1-2 TBSP Poppy Seeds

Slice the Hawaiian Rolls and spread the top portion 
with the Alouette Cheese.  

Place the bottom half of the rolls in a 9x13 baking pan.  
Layer the ham generously on first.   
Top with the shredded Gruyere cheese.  
Place the top layer on next.  

Melt the stick of butter and add the 2 TBSP of Worcestershire.  Pour over the rolls.  

Use pastry brush to make sure all the rolls 
are covered in the butter sauce.  
Sprinkle with the Poppy Seeds.   

Cover with foil and bake 350 degrees about 20 minutes.  
Remove the foil and bake and additional 
7 - 10 minutes or so to toast the tops.

Slice those wonderful Hawaiian Rolls...

Spread the Alouettte Cheese on one side..

Top the other side generously with the ham...

Shred that creamy, dreamy Guyere...



So pretty!

Top the ham with the Guyere...

Apparently this is what the ham sandwiches 
look like upside down...
 
No I cannot fix it...

Sigh...

Anyway, melt the butter and add the Worcestershire sauce...

 


Pour over the rolls after you have placed the top 
over the ham and cheese...

Use a pastry brush to make sure every nook and cranny 
is slathered in the buttery sauce...

Sprinkle with the Poppy Seeds...

  Cover with foil and bake 20 minutes.

Uncover and bake 7-10 minutes longer until browned.  

Slice and enjoy these decadent sandwiches!
