Hawaiian Sandwiches

This is not so much a recipe as an idea. Since we were gone all week last week, I'm playing catch up with the Cooking through the Pioneer Woman's cookbook this week and am pretty much only cooking staple recipes that I've already posted or Pioneer Woman recipes. So I thought I would give you the details about one of my favorite warmed sandwiches since this time of year is the perfect time to enjoy a warm sandwich.
The key ingredient is Hawaiian bread/rolls. I buy King's because that's the only kind of Hawaiin bread that they sell at our grocery stores. So buy either a package of small square rolls or a large round pan of the bread. The sweetness of the bread is what makes it so good. Then you can add whatever you want on the sandwich and then you heat it in the oven until the cheese is all melty. My Mom used to make it with onions but I don't have that exact recipe so we just make a sandwich now. We usually put two kinds of meat (ham and turkey usually), cheese (usually something really yummy from the deli like smoked guyere or smoked cheddar), mayo, and mustard (something tangy works best). These are super easy and are really good. And if you're making them for, say, a football game or an event their easy to make ahead of time and just pop them in the oven about 20 - 30 minutes (on 350) before you want to serve them. So in summary...

Cut sandwich bread in half. Spread mayo on bread. Add mustard to bread. Add meats and cheese(s). Toast in the oven on 350 for 20-30 minutes or until the cheese melts.
