Notes

  • King's Hawaiian Rolls: or any other dinner rolls that are about 2 inches across. If you use my favorite, King’s Hawaiian Rolls, you’ll need a serrated bread knife to slice them through neatly! Here is an option:https://amzn.to/2RDHOAP

  • Pyrex dish: about 13x9 inches: https://amzn.to/3tmYXwx

  • NO SOGGY SLIDERS: The first layer is the cheese. Then, spread the marinara sauce over the cheese. This will create a barrier between the bread and the marinara. Your sliders will be crisp and delicious!

  • You can pour the butter mixture over the sliders, but for best results use a basting brush: https://amzn.to/3WZFfoU
