  • 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. mustard
  • 1 Tbsp. onion flakes

  4. Mix poppy seed, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and onion flakes together and pour over the assembled rolls.

Tips & Substitutions

For a flavor boost, consider adding a layer of thinly sliced pickles or jalapeños to the ham and cheese for a zesty kick. If you're out of Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce can work as a substitute. To save time, you can use pre-sliced deli ham and cheese. These Miniature Ham Rolls can also be made with turkey or chicken for a lighter option.

Serving Suggestions

These Miniature Ham Rolls are perfect as a party appetizer or game-day snack. Serve them with a side of tangy mustard or a creamy dip for added flavor. They also pair well with a fresh salad or vegetable platter. For a heartier meal, consider serving with Oven-Barbecued Country Pork Ribs for a delicious spread.

Storage & Reheating

Leftover Miniature Ham Rolls should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, wrap them in foil and warm in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes, or until heated through. This method keeps the rolls from becoming soggy while ensuring the cheese melts nicely.
