Sweet, cheesy, and oh-so-satisfying!

These Cheddar Mozzarella Turkey Pesto Sliders are made with Trader Joe’s Sweet Pull Apart Aloha Rolls, adding the perfect hint of sweetness to balance the savory flavors. Imagine layers of melted mozzarella and cheddar, juicy turkey, and a generous spread of pesto—all packed into fluffy, golden rolls. It’s a quick, crowd-pleasing meal that works for game day, busy weeknights, or any time you’re craving a delicious bite.

I love how easy these sliders are to make, and they’re always a hit with my family. Ready to bring some serious flavor to your next meal?

Let’s get into the recipe!

To make the perfect sliders, keep these tips in mind:

  1. Use soft, fresh rolls like the Sweet Pull Apart Aloha Rolls or Kings Original Hawaiian Sweet Rolls for that ideal texture and flavor.

  2. Brush the tops with a flavorful butter mix (like garlic and parsley) to add extra depth and a beautiful golden crust.

  3. Cover the sliders with foil while baking to prevent the tops from browning too quickly, then remove the foil to let the cheese melt perfectly.

  4. Let the sliders cool slightly before cutting to keep all the delicious layers intact.

FAQs

  1. Can I make these sliders ahead of time?

    • Yes! You can assemble the sliders a few hours in advance and refrigerate them. Just wait to brush on the butter until right before baking to keep the rolls from getting soggy.

  2. Can I use different meats or cheeses?

    • Absolutely! You can swap the turkey for chicken, ham, or roast beef. Feel free to customize the cheese as well—Swiss or pepper jack would work great!

  3. What if I don’t like pesto?

    • If you’re not a fan of pesto, try using a different spread like garlic aioli, mustard, or even a light ranch dressing for flavor.
