Now that the holidays are upon us, an abundance of food seems to be on hand at every turn, and it’s so important to try our best not to waste. We’ve partnered with Kroger for their Zero Hunger Zero Waste Initiative this holiday season to show you how to use the food you have so that less goes to waste. There is so much hunger in our communities, and a way my family gives back is simply by giving. We buy one food item for our fam and grab one for the food bank. This is a practice we utilize throughout the year, but it’s particularly important during the holidays.
With so many gatherings in our homes and those of loved ones, there can be so much leftover turkey or ham or roast beef! I want to show you guys a great way to use up the leftover meats, cheeses, and rolls to elevate that sandwich game. A quick trip in the oven makes these sliders crispy on top and tender with melty cheese on the inside! The really great thing about this recipe is that you most likely have everything you need in your home right now to make it. This recipe can easily be adapted to use any leftover roasted meats or cheeses from your charcuterie boards. Throw some salami and pickles on top with a nice smear of mayo! Always remember, no matter what you have, it’s important to possess a giving heart, to teach your children to give, and to try as much as possible not to waste. #zerowastezerohunger #kroger
1 tray of 12 buttered dinner rolls
3 cups diced, cooked leftover turkey
1/2 cup salted butter, melted
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. dried parsley
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
6 slices leftover cheese (think party platters from the holiday)
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a 9 by 13 baking dish with parchment paper. Slice rolls in half and tuck the bottom half close together in the baking dish. Cover roll bottoms with turkey. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, onion powder, parsley, and garlic powder. Spoon 1/2 butter mixture over turkey. Slice cheese into squares and lay over top of buttered turkey. Place roll tops on turkey and cheese. Spoon last of butter onto roll tops and bake for 20 minutes or until tops are golden brown and cheese is melted.
I recently bought the Applewood Smoked Bacon & Cheddar Angus Beef Patties. I feel they need a divider between Pattie’s so they will be easier to get apart individually. Thank you Lynette Tripp, Dalton Ga 30721
