  1. I can see why this sandwich was haunting you for days, it is really delicious. I cut this down to one sandwich, prepared it through the baking part, and then cooled it down and took it to work for lunch. I reheated it for about a minute, and it was so good. I liked the little pop the poppy seeds gave the sandwich, and I used a dried onion specialty mix and real butter instead of margarine. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. Good Sammy ... the only change I made was to leave out the poppy seeds and to use different cheese. We get some great cheese called Cougar Cheese and that is what we used on this sammy!! Yum!
     
  3. Thanks "Cook in Southwest", the hamburger buns really did work great! i used villagio hamburger buns, and made my sandwich with yellow mustard [insted of dijon], no poppy seeds [because i didnt have any], and shredded mozarella instead of swiss cheese - needless to say, it was still amazing! i look forward to trying the recipe next time without substituting any ingredients! VERY VERY QUICK AND DELICIOUS!
     
  4. I used fresh onions and real butter. I made these twice. The first time with lots of substitutions and I learned the Dijon mustard makes the butter spread thicken, so don't substitute on that item. Hamburger buns work great with this because they soak up the butter well. If you put on more ham than called for, the buns may dry out before the ham gets hot, so preheat the ham in that case. One subsitution that I would highly recommend is gouda cheese. It melts better than Swiss. These would make GREAT appetizers if served on those mini-burger buns used for sliders. I think the poppy seeds are optional.
     
  5. These were nice, but I found the onions overwhelming in the sauce. I did use the dried onions, so perhaps fresh ones would have been better. A good idea for a lunch you can freeze and pull out to heat up with little effort.

  2. Just made a sandwich for myself using some leftover ham from Christmas Eve... I don't like poppy seeds so I left those out and used butter instead of margarine and dried onion. My BF would kill me if he knew I made these without him being here to sample since he LOVES sandwiches of any kind. These were a great change from the same old boring ham and cheese sandwich. Thanks so much for sharing an easy and delicious sandwich!!!

Love to travel. Once ate a large mouthful of butter while in Paris (I thought it was soft cheese)! My napkin was about 3" square. The server there had full eye contact with me at the time... my most humbling moment.</p>
