Cheese & Ham Filled Sandwiches

Here’s a blue-ribbon-worthy version of a classic sandwich. When guests try the crusty buns filled with ham and rich, melted goat cheese, they quickly reach for seconds.—Clara Hedrich, Chilton, Wisconsin

4 ServingsPrep/Total Time: 30 min.

Ingredients

4 hoagie buns
1 small red onion, chopped
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded fontina cheese
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded aged goat cheese
1 cup cubed fully cooked ham
1/3 cup roasted sweet red peppers, drained and cut into strips
2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Cut a thin slice off the top of each bun. Hollow out bottoms of buns,
leaving a 1/4-in. shell (discard removed bread or save for another
use).
In a small skillet, saute onion in oil until tender. Remove from the
heat; stir in the cheeses, ham, red peppers, parsley, thyme, salt
and pepper.
Spoon into shells; replace tops. Wrap each sandwich in foil, leaving
top open. Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 10-14
minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 4 servings.
