How to make Turkey Cheese Sliders

• These oven baked turkey cheese sliders are sliced and slathered with your favorite barbecue sauce. After you slather on the sauce, you layer deli turkey meat and cheddar cheese. 
• Then, before you bake the turkey slider to melty goodness, you mix up some melted butter with all the spices you need to make a BBQ chip seasoning. 
• The secret ingredient? Smoked paprika and brown sugar. Pour it all over the cheesy turkey rolls, then add in the baking dish to bake. After that…EAT! And try to share a turkey cheese slider. 🙂

Instructions

• Spray a 9×13” baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350°F, or if you’re using a grill, use a disposable pan and preheat it to about the same temperature.
• Slice rolls in half (leave them connected if they are connected in the package). Place the bottom of the rolls in the pan. Spread with barbecue sauce, then layer with turkey and shredded cheese. Place the top half of the rolls on top.
• Stir together butter and spices, then pour over the top of the sandwiches. Bake or grill until the cheese is melty and the sandwiches are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.
