Ingredients
- 3 Rhodes Texas™ rolls, thawed but still cold
- 1 egg, beaten
- mayonnaise, if desired
- 3 lettuce leaves
- 3 sliced deli ham meat
- 3 slices cheese
Directions
-
Cut 1/4 off of one roll and roll it into a 10-inch rope.
-
Cut the rope into 4 segments for the laces. Set aside.
-
Press remaining 2 3/4 rolls into a football shape leaving the top mounded and edges thinner.
-
Pull the ends to exaggerate the points. Place on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
-
With a knife, make a slight cut across the top of the football not quite reaching the points.
-
Lay each lace across the cut. Using a toothpick or knife, push the ends of the laces down into the football securing them tightly.
-
Brush with egg and let rise for 30 minutes. Bake at 350°F 20 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Let cool and then slice. Spread with mayonnaise, if desired and stuff with lettuce, deli meat and cheese.
