yum! . I didn't bother with mustard because my children are young and not too keen on strong flavours. I used a slice of cheddar, sandwich ham and a slice of tomato to each. a big hit, and very easy.

My family loved these snacks!! They went together very quickly with a minimum amount of ingredients. I made a full batch and 3 of us managed to almost finish them off in one sitting. I will be making these again. Thanks for posting this keeper recipe!!

These were excellent. I used a whole grain mustard, Canadian bacon, and a shredded cheese blend. Served them with scrambled eggs for breakfast. Made a 1/2 batch and my hubby ate 6! (I got the other 3).
