Buffalo Chicken Sandwich

It’s day three of Football Favorites week here on Cookin’ Mimi. This is a sandwich I came up with one day when I wanted something a bit more involved than my usual ham or grilled cheese sandwich. I am definitely glad I did.

The flavors of Buffalo wings in a sandwich

Yield: 4 sandwiches

Ingredients

• 4 sub rolls or hoagie buns
• 4-8 frozen breaded chicken fingers
• To taste hot wing sauce
• 4 slices of mozzarella cheese
• Various amounts toppings such as lettuce, onion, and tomato
• To taste mayonnaise, ranch or blue cheese dressing

Cooking Directions

Bake chicken fingers according to package directions.

Remove from oven and toss with wing sauce. Place coated wings on cookie sheet and top with cheese. Bake for several minutes until the cheese melts and begins to brown.

Spread sub rolls with the mayo or dressing. Place chicken fingers on roll and add desired toppings.

Variations: Instead of breaded chicken you could use plain baked or grilled chicken. You could chop the chicken into smaller pieces and server on small rolls such as the Hawaiian Sweet rolls for more of an appetizer.

Sloppy Joes are one of my favorite feed a crowd dishes and are also a great make ahead meal. I tweaked this recipe from a cookbook, I think, to fit my family’s taste and even former sloppy Joe haters had no problems devouring their dinners.

This would be a great weeknight meal because if you need it to it can cook on low all day.

Hot Ham and Cheese Sandwiches

Now this probably wins the prize for the easiest recipe I will ever post. I almost hate to use the word recipe but it technically is one. This is fast, easy, kid pleasing and can be made entirely of leftovers so it is economical.

Ingredients:

• Ham
• Dinner Rolls or Hamburger Buns
• Cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place opened rolls on baking sheet. Top each roll with one or two slices of ham and cheese. Close rolls and bake for about five minutes or until the cheese has melted and ham is warmed. Serve immediately
