boat sandwiches

14 June 2012

Here is one of our all-time favorites. My dear friend Greta brought when my baby #3 was born. We have made them since for picnics, dinners, birthday parties, football games, and for other new moms. Adults and kids love them and they are super easy and do-able and make your house smell great!



Boat Sandwiches
{from Greta}
24 white Rhodes Rolls
9 oz package of thinly sliced ham or turkey
8 oz shredded mozzarella, swiss, or cheddar cheese
1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
Grated Parmesan cheese
Italian Seasoning or any other seasoning (optional)
Let rolls thaw at room temperature for 2 – 3 hours, but don’t let rise. Flatten the rolls out into a circle, put meat and cheese on one side.

Fold over and pinch together.

Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and seasoning.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned.

I hope your family loves them as much as we have!

    1. We make a pizza version of these. Smear 1/2 a teaspoon of spaghetti sauce or pizza sauce onto the flattened roll. Add about 5 pepperoni slices and a quartered string cheese. Pinch it close and enjoy. So yummy and easy for picnics or kids lunches or he drive in. The location possibilities are endless.

  5. Hmmmm....do you know if you can make these ahead of time or partially ahead of time?  They would be great for a party!

    Hi Kim~Yes, I make them ahead often and just put the pan in the refrigerator until you are ready to bake.

    Hi Amanda! Just put them out on the counter and let them thaw for an hour or so, until they are soft and workable. Sometimes if I forget to pull them out, I put the frozen dough in the microwave and soften it up for a minute or so. I hope this helps!
