French Dip Sliders

Well! It has been a little while since I have blogged anything, hasn't it? I am attempting to dust the cobwebs off this blog by starting to add some of the delicious things we have been eating here in Chaosville so here is the first one! As with many of the new recipes I have tied lately it started as a post on Facebook. This particular recipe was posted on Chelsea's Messy Apron

Ingredients:
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 package (12) Hawaiian sweet rolls
1 pound deli roast beef
10-12 slices provolone cheese
1 1/2 cups French fried onions
Seasoning mix:
8 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 packet AuJus seasoning mix, separated
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3/4 teaspoon dried minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Using the softened butter, butter the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Split the package of Hawaiian rolls in half but do not separate the rolls individually.

2. Place the bottom half of the rolls in the buttered casserole pan. Top with a layer of provolone.

3. Add the roast beef in a layer on top of the cheese.

4. Spread the fried onions on top as evenly as you can. Add another layer of cheese on top of the onions.

5. For the seasoning sauce, melt the butter in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of the AuJus mix and the remaining ingredients.

6. Put the top layer of rolls on and coat with the sauce. You probably won't need all the sauce, just enough to cover the tops of all the rolls well.

7. Bake, uncovered for 15-20 minutes. Just long enough to make the cheese melty and the tops of the rolls toasted. Slice with a large knife to separate all the rolls from each other.

8. We ate ours with some pasta salad and loved every bite!
