Ingredients

  • 12 Hawaiian rolls - soft, halved
  • 1 pound leftover carved turkey - thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cranberry sauce
  • 2 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 2 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 cup Asiago cheese - shredded
  • Fresh cracked pepper
  • 2 tablespoon butter - melted
  • Sea salt
  • Fresh thyme - for topping (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x11 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl mix together the cream cheese, milk and mayo.
  • Carefully cut rolls in half, either individually or all at once (up to you!). Layer bottom half first with turkey and then with the cream cheese mixture (originally I put the cream cheese mixture on first and then the turkey- the bottoms got a little soggy. To help with this I reversed the order and first put on the turkey). Place a generous dollop of cranberry sauce over the top and evenly distribute the cheese between the sandwiches.
  • Place the top of the roll back on each sandwich and brush the top with melted butter. Sprinkle the top with sea salt and bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and tops are golden brown (if the tops brown too quickly, carefully place a sheet of foil over the baking dish.
  • Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh chopped thyme and serve.
