Poppy Seeds Turkey Sliders

I got the idea for Poppy Seeds Turkey Sandwiches when I made Poppy Seeds Sausage Rolls… which I got from all those Poppy Seeds Ham Rolls you see all over Pinterest. I do really like those sweet ham rolls. After having an abundance of smoked turkey, Big Daddy was on the smoker all weekend, I wanted to try a variation of those buttery rolls.

Poppy Seeds Turkey Sliders are also a good way to use up leftover turkey if you have it from the holidays. I have Big Daddy smoke a turkey or chicken often and use it in a lot of different recipes such as Chicken Pot Pie Quesadillas, Fajita Seasoned Chicken Black Beans and Corn, Stuffed Poblano Peppers and Bacon Chicken Jalapeno Dip.

This is also a good way to use day-old bread. If you have bread, rolls or buns that are getting a little dry, this is a good recipe for them. I actually like dry bread better, the butter soaks up in the bread better. I just love when the bread gets crispy from the butter when baked.

Method

These Poppy Seeds Turkey Sliders are easily adjusted for small parties or large crowds. For four sliders, I used about 1/3 pound of sliced turkey. I also added bacon because well everything is better with bacon. It. Just. Is. Pile the sandwiches as high as you like with these two types of meat.

Then I layered on a generous amount of mild cheddar cheese slices. You may want to use a sharp cheddar if you prefer that bold flavor. I prefer my ratio of cheese to turkey at about 2 to 1, that’s double the amount of cheese to turkey. Most people, especially men, prefer it the other way around so that is reflected in the recipe. It’s an easily adaptable recipe so add or delete ingredients to fit your tastes.

And, finally, I just think the caramelized onions make this recipe. Cook your onions low and slow to bring out that natural sweetness. It just adds such a nice flavor in contrast to the smokey turkey and salty bacon.

You can substitute chicken for the turkey in this recipe if that is what you have on hand. If not, pick up a rotisserie chicken if you don’t have time to cook the turkey or chicken.
