INGREDIENT NOTES:

HAWAIIAN SWEET ROLLS:

  • They perfectly preserve the sweetness of the salty meat. You can use potato rolls if you prefer.

DELI HAM:

  • This ham provides a salty and savory protein base for the sandwiches. You can substitute sliced turkey breast.

PROVOLONE CHEESE:

  • The cheese melts beautifully and adds a creamy flavor that binds the meat together. You can use mozzarella cheese as another choice.

SHREDDED LETTUCE:

  • This lettuce offers a crunchy texture that balances the heavy meats and cheese. You can substitute fresh baby spinach.

BANANA PEPPERS:

  • They add a tangy and mild heat to the sandwiches. Try pepperoncini rings as another option.

MAYONNAISE:

  • Mayonnaise holds the loose vegetable toppings together with the meat. It delivers smooth and creamy richness in every bite. You can use plain Greek yogurt instead.
