OVEN HOT HAM & CHEESE SANDWICHES



Oven Hot Ham & Cheese Sandwiches image

Made these inspired by Pioneer Woman and they were soooo yummy. Love that you can make so many variations and I think the #1 trick is them being in the oven and all that yumminess melting together! Small Hawaiian rolls would also work really well with these. The mayonnaise can be substituted for melted butter as well.
