Hot Sandwiches

Last night was a fun meal!  Everyone was able to pick out what kind of hot sandwich they wanted, I had plenty of fillings to choose from so there were lots of custom versions.  The bread was so quick and easy, my mind is already spinning around thinking of all the fun things I can do with it.


Hot Sandwiches
Recipe for rolls adapted from RecipeShoebox

Ingredients:

1-3/4 cups warm water 
3 tbsp. yeast 
1/2 cup oil 
1/2 cup sugar or honey 
2 eggs

1 tbsp. salt

5-6 cups flour (I used 5 cups white, 1 cup wheat, and threw in 1 tbsp. ground flax seed for good measure!)

Mix all ingredients together and knead for 10 minutes.

After kneading, divide the dough into four equal sections. Roll out each section of dough and with a pizza cutter slice the dough into 4 pieces.

Place on the dough your filling.  I had roast beef, ham and turkey available for the meats.  For the cheese, we could choose from cheddar, mozzerella, swiss, provolone, american and gouda.  The picture above is my roast beef and gouda sandwich.

Tuck in the fat end and roll towards the narrow end.

Place rolled crescents onto greased cookie sheet, let rise for 10-15 minutes and bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to overbake. You'll want to catch them just as they're beginning to brown.

I had some dough left over after everyone made their sandwich, so I put some melted butter on it, added some brown sugar and cinnamon, rolled it up and had a yummy sweet dessert!
