EDIT: TITLE FIX: I am trying to figure out the name for this ham sandwich recipe and I am losing it!!

I have been trying to find this h sandwich recipe my mom used to make all the time for me as a kid so that I can attempt to veganize it!

It was this ham and cheese slider recipe, usually these types of sandwiches could potentially be seen at mormon funerals/gatherings (at least most of the ones I was drug to 😂. These ham and cheese sliders were made with ham, I think some sort of white cheese (maybe swiss?), slider bread, and the piece of resistance was the sauce. Oh... The sauce.... Its like this Mayonnaise with herbs in it I think. Maybe parsley? Oregano? I have no idea but this sauce made the sandwich. Paired with the whatever cheese the sandwich made it so moist.... The sauce made the sandwhich a sweetish savory.

Again I have no idea the name of the sandwich, looking up sandwich ham & cheese sliders just gives me.... Sliders with melted cheese and ham. Idk if any of the ingredients I listed are correct, it's just what it looked/tasted like (from memory)

I'm pretty sure you bake these sliders with the sauce and everything put together, my mom would always pull out cookie sheets/ pans from the oven full of them.

Thank you lemmy for helping me on my quest to recreate a childhood dish!

EDIT: I was able to figure it out! I guess its just swiss cheese, ham, sauce: mayo, mustard, and dill 😂😂

Thank you all for the help!!

Perhaps it's some sort of ham and cheese sliders on sweet Hawaiian rolls? I've made these before and they're delicious. The Hawaiian rolls give it a sweetness especially if you use a honey ham, and you brush them with a garlic butter and cover with foil to bake, then bake uncovered for the last ~10 min to get a slight browning on top. I suggest you try experimenting with different sauces by adding different herbs to mayo (& mustard if you like) until it fits your liking. Personally, I love to put pickle slices in my ham and cheese sliders -- or pickled jalapenos if I'm feeling spicier!

It may not be the exact same thing your mom made, but trust me these are worth trying
