Poppy Ham Rolls

(from The Good Stuff Guide )

1 dozen dinner rolls

¾ pound baked ham, sliced

½ pound swiss or mozzarella cheese, sliced

1 stick butter

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon prepared mustard

1 tablespoon poppy seeds

2 tablespoons brown sugar

Fix individual ham and cheese rolls and lay in 9×13 pan.  Bring remaining ingredients to a boil over low heat in a saucepan.  Remove from heat and spoon over top of prepared rolls.

Let sit for 4 hours or prepare the day before and store in refrigerator.  (I find this step not entirely necessary.  I do, however, like the meal the next day only taking 15 minutes to prepare start to finish.  Sometimes it’s helpful but don’t stress if you need to just pop them in the oven right after you prepare them.)

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes or until cheese melts.  Serve warm or at room temperature.

3 to 4 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs, or a mix of thighs and breasts
Olive oil
1 large onion, diced
2 (or more) cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons smoked paprika I just used regular paprika, since that is what I had)
2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper
12 (1 1/2 cups) ounces barbecue sauce

Cook the onion and garlic for 5 minutes or until quite soft. Add the paprika and stir. Add barbecue sauce and salt and pepper. Stir well. Layer chicken in crockpot. Add the warmed sauce on top. Cook on low in crockpot for 7-8 hours, or on high for 4 hours. Shred chicken when done cooking, and serve on buns, or you could put this in a salad too.

Smoked Turkey Club Panini

I am a lover of Panini sandwiches. Have you ever been to the Corner Bakery Cafe...or Panera Bread? LOVE both of those places!!!!! Here is a FANTASTIC panini sandwich recipe. We had it for dinner, and then lunch again the next day : ) I told you I was a lover of the panini.

(from Mel's Kitchen Cafe)

*Makes 4 sandwiches

8-12 slices bacon
1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil, rinsed, patted dry and minced
1/3 cup light mayonnaise
8 slices thick-cut crusty bread
1/2 pound thinly sliced deli Swiss cheese
1/2 pound thinly sliced deli smoked turkey
3 cups baby spinach or arugula

Cook bacon until crisp. You can use a skillet or use the microwave, placing the bacon in a single layer on a paper-towel lined plate, cover with paper towels and microwave for about 5 minutes (repeating the process if all the bacon doesn’t fit the first round). In a small bowl, combine the sun-dried tomatoes and mayonnaise.

Lightly spread butter over one side of each bread. Lay the butter-sides down on a cutting board or work area. Spread each slice with the sun-dried tomato mayonnaise. Layer half of the cheese on 4 slices of bread then top with turkey, bacon, spinach (or arugula) and remaining cheese. Top with remaining bread, butter side up.

Cook the sandwiches on a panini press, skillet or grill pan heated on medium heat for one minute prior to cooking (I used my skillet, since I don't have a panini press, and it was just fine!!). Cook the sandwiches for about 4-5 minutes per side, until they are golden brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Serve immediately.

Seriously...only 3 ingredients. Only 3 ingredients and still soooooo good!!! If you are like me and hate to turn you oven on in the summer because it makes you whole house feel like you are living in Dubai OUTDOORS, you will definitely want to be making this crockpot meal at least a couple times this summer!!!!
