Cream Cheese Slider Sandwiches #SundaySupper
Mitten Meals | July 16, 2017 | By Erin@BottomLeftoftheMitten
Heading out to a picnic? These little slider sandwiches with big flavor are perfect because they are very portable. The sweetness of the roll mixed with savory cream cheese and deli meats can be rich but also addicting. Limit yourself to one then treat yourself to a great picnic dessert like my Piña Colada Upside Down Cake.
This week started 3 day work weeks for my husband. Normally he already works 4-10 hour shifts so with enough saved up vacation time he took another day off every week until September. Plenty of time to have fun in the pool and discover new places that we haven’t visited yet is on our agenda. This past week alone took Little A to his very first trip to SkyZone and a zoo that was truly amazing.
Then of course we will be hitting the usual places that we love:
Head over to St. Joseph, MI for the Splash Pad and grab a slice of pizza at Silver Beach Pizza
Visit the animals at Potawatomi Zoo – The oldest zoo in Indiana.
Central Park in Mishawaka – Our newest find! A smaller splash pad and play area. The perfect place to have a picnic!
Make sure to catch a South Bend Cubs game.
See the area that we live in is coined ‘ Michiana’. On the boarder of Michigan and Indiana. Head to Kalamazoo or to South Bend in equal time. Plus we are about equally 2-1/2 hours from Detroit, Indianapolis and Chicago. So many possibilities but since we aren’t giant planners we will have to just see where the Summer takes us. Now on to the picnic food!
Sweet Hawaiian rolls make the perfect bun for these sandwiches. These slider buns come in a a package that can be used to get them where they are going. First let’s make the herbed cream cheese. Take 1 block of cream cheese and make sure it’s softened. Mix in garlic powder, oregano and parley then stir to combine.
Cut the buns in half placing the bottom half back into the box that the rolls originally came in. Spread half of the cream cheese on the buns. Layer ham, sliced tomatoes then the turkey pastrami. Taking the top half put the rest of the cream cheese on it then put on top. All done! You are picnic ready in less than 10 minutes.
After the sandwiches have been assembled here is a great way to transport them to your favorite picnic location-use the packaging from the rolls. Since they were made right in the paper tray now just cover with two pieces of plastic wrap and put back into bag. Tie with plastic tie and you are ready! Place the sandwiches at the top of your cooler so they don’t get flattened. And here your are….
