Gameday Breakfast Sliders {College Football Saturday Tailgate 2012}

  Wel­come to the 2012 Col­lege Foot­ball Sat­ur­day Tail­gate Party! It’s week 3 and I’m hop­ing we can move for­ward after last week. My Huskers lost in poor fash­ion to UCLA. How did your team do? Hope­fully bet­ter than ours! Last week I shared a foot­ball craft (an easy DIY team spirit wreath). So, this week I’m chang­ing it up with a recipe. Our game is at 9:00am here, so we needed to do some sort of break­fast tail­gat­ing food. And, what sounds more per­fect than break­fast sliders?!

YUM! Per­fect for morn­ing games. Easy to make, super tasty, and def­i­nitely more fill­ing than some­thing like dough­nuts! So, here’s how to whip up a batch of these tasty ham, egg, & cheese break­fast sliders…

Ingre­di­ents:

• 1 pkg (12 count) Kings Hawai­ian Rolls
• 10 –12 eggs (depend­ing on egg size & how “eggy” you want your sliders)
• pro­volone cheese
• sliced ham (at least 6 large slices)
• 1/4C but­ter (melted)
• 1T mus­tard
• 1.5T brown sugar

Direc­tions:

1. Scram­ble up your eggs how­ever you like to do them. 2. While the eggs scram­ble, cut the entire pack­age of rolls in half (so you have a sheet of the tops & the bottoms).

3. Cover the bot­tom sheet of rolls with the pro­volone cheese (I just hap­haz­ardly laid slices all over).

4. Once the eggs are done, cover the cheese layer with the eggs. Then, lay ham slices over the eggs. *Note– it’s eas­i­est to do this with the rolls already in the pan.

5. Place the top sheet of rolls over the ham. Then, cut through all lay­ers to get the indi­vid­ual sandwiches.

6. In a saucepan (or the microwave), com­bine but­ter, mus­tard & brown sugar. Once every­thing is “melty” & mostly dis­solved, driz­zle over the tops of the sandwiches.

7. Cover the pan with foil & let every­thing sit for at least 30 min­utes. Can even do overnight & let sit in the refrig­er­a­tor. Then, bake at 350 for about 15–20 min­utes (until cheese gets nice & melty)

Seri­ously, YUM!

And, if you’re look­ing for a slider recipe for any time aside from break­fast, then you HAVE to check out the Coca-Cola BBQ Pulled Pork Slid­ers (with sauteed apples & onions) that I posted ear­lier in the week. One of the best things I’ve made in a long time!  Now it’s YOUR turn. I can’t wait to see your football-related fun, food, & creativity!
