Recipe Tips

How to Use the Meat and Cheese Trimmings
Store the meat and cheese trimmings in airtight container in refrigerator until ready to use as desired, such as to prepare your favorite mixed green or pasta salad.
Note
Look for packaged square ham and cheese slices (about 3-1/2 inch) in your supermarket deli department to use to make the meat and cheese cutouts. Also, look for packaged similarly-sized turkey slices.
Substitute
Substitute chipotle mayonnaise for the barbecue sauce.
