Ingredients

  • 12-count pkg Hawaiian rolls (or hoagies cut in half, or regular bread)
  • 24 slices lunch meat (or leftover ham or turkey)
  • 12 slices cheese
  • Condiments, such as mustard, mayo, miracle whip, or honey mustard (optional)

Instructions

  • Cut rolls in half.
  • Add one slice of meat (folded to fit on the roll), cheese (also folded), condiments, second slice of meat, then bread.
  • Repeat for each roll!
  • Add one or two sandwiches to a sandwich baggie, removing as much air as possible. (Don't forget to label the bags if they're different!) Add all baggies to a freezer bag and stick in the freezer.
  • Pull them out of the freezer the morning of and they'll be thawed by lunch!

Notes

You only want your bread touching the meat, not the condiments or cheese! Some can thaw weirdly with the bread, leaving you with a soggy mess. But the meat thaws fine while touching the bread!
