Notes: Have fun with these! Add any extra toppings you typically like on your sub!
For me these are perfect when you want a sandwich, but maybe want someone a little bit smaller and more bite sized. In my opinion, some foods are just a bit more enjoyable when their in a cute mini form!
And, these are perfect for parties! You could set these out open-faced on a platter and let your friends and family top these with whatever they’d like! You can have toppings like:
- Tomatoes
- Banana Peppers
- Pickels
- Shredded Carrots
- Jalapenos
These sub sliders are as so easy, and ready to serve in about 15-20 minutes from prep to finish. Here’s how to make them!
Layer. First, on the bottom slices of the slider bun you’re going to layer your meats and cheeses. I leave the slice of deli ham whole and just kind of fold it into a little pile. For the salami and cheese I cut those slices into quarters then layer a few pieces on top of each bun.
Brush. The extra special tough to these sliders is the herbed butter you’ll brush over the tops of the buns. Mix some melted butter with Italian seasoning and some garlic powder then generously use a basting brush to coat the tops of the buns.
Bake. Now just pop them in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes!
While the sliders are baking, whip up the lettuce topping. I like to add a generous amount of pepper and red wine vinegar to this to really add a nice little kick. It will help cut through some of the heaviness from the mayo and cheese.
Once the sub sliders come out of the oven, I like to let them cool for about 10 minutes. Once they’ve cooled down a bit, top them with your shredded lettuce mixture, add a top bun, then eat!
A fun little party snack or a fun dinner for the family!
