Our Turkey Club Mini Sandwiches have become a new favorite in our home! Picture the delightful combination of golden Hawaiian rolls brushed with a mouthwatering butter and Parmesan blend, layered with savory turkey, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and topped off with fresh tomato and lettuce. These bite-sized treats are not only incredibly delicious but also quick and easy to make!
Crafting these delicious turkey and cheese mini sandwiches is both simple and entertaining! Start by cutting a 12-pack of Hawaiian Rolls horizontally, then place the bottom half in your baking dish to begin assembling your sliders.
Spread some mayonnaise, stack on the turkey, bacon, and cheese, and lightly brush the tops of the rolls with butter before baking. Once the sliders are heated through and the cheese is gooey, finish them off with crisp lettuce, onions, and ripe tomatoes before serving. The beauty of this dish lies in its assembly – resembling a giant sandwich that can be easily torn into individual portions. Effortless and enjoyable!
