Mini Ham Swiss Rye Sandwiches With Cranberry Onion Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions; saute until well-browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Add rosemary and cloves; continue to saute until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes longer. Stir in cranberry sauce, and simmer until heated through. Remove from heat and set aside. (Cranberry-Onion Relish can be cooled, covered and refrigerated up to 2 weeks ahead.)
• To assemble: Working in batches, lay breads on a work surface and spread with about 1/4 tsp. mustard and 1 tsp. cranberry relish. Top half the breads with a portion of ham, cheese and arugula (optional), then the remaining bread slice. Halve each sandwich on the diagonal, sticking each half with a toothpick. (Sandwiches can be covered with a damp paper towel and plastic wrap and can remain at room temperature for 2 hours.)

Steps:

• For cranberry relish, in a large skillet heat oil; cook cranberries and onion in the hot oil over medium heat for 5 minutes or until just softened, stirring often. Stir in vinegar; cook and stir about 1 minutes more or until most of the liquid is absorbed; let cool.
• Split loaf of bread in half horizontally. Hollow out inside of each half, leaving a 3/4-inch-thick shell. Arrange cheese slices on the bottom half of the bread. Spoon cranberry relish over cheese. Layer meat and lettuce on top of relish. Spread mayonnaise on the cut side of the top half of bread; place spread side down on filled loaf. Cut sandwich into wedges.

Steps:

• Toast the slices of Jewish Rye bread, then spread the Kraft REAL MAYO on one or both slices. Add your meat(s), cheese, lettuce, tomato. Then if you like, add a green olive to the top or have a dill pickle spear to compliment this sandwich. Enjoy!

• **When I am out of rye bread, I use HomePride wheat bread. Also, my husband and I have found the best deli style smoked ham at Wal-Mart Supercenters. It is from Land O' Frost and is called DAGWOOD smoked ham. Absolutely the best in our opinion!
