Dilly Ham Sandwiches

This recipe dates back to pre-microwave days. It's the best ham sandwich ever! I think the credit goes to Pat for this one.

1 cup real butter
1/2 cup finely minced onion
1/4 cup mustard
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
1 lb. thinly sliced deli ham
sliced Swiss cheese
1 dozen potato rolls

Mix the first 4 ingredients and let set overnight in refrigerator. When ready to prepare, spread butter mixture onto split rolls. (If you can't find potato rolls, use sweet Italian or another good roll) Now pile on the shredded ham; top with cheese. Wrap in foil and store in freezer. To serve, heat foil-wrapped sandwiches in a 350 degree oven for 30 to 45 minutes.

These are great to have on hand in the freezer. If you prefer to heat them in the microwave, simply wrap the sandwiches in plastic wrap instead of foil. Heat carefully in the microwave, or the bread will become tough. I really prefer to cook these in a regular oven, because it seems to improve the flavor.
