SERVES 8

• 4 cups cooked, finely chopped chicken or ham
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 5 hard-boiled egg yolks
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup milk
• 8 oblong sandwich or club rolls

In a large bowl, mix the chicken or ham with the salt and pepper. Set aside.

Mash the hard-boiled egg yolks in a medium bowl with the back of a fork until a very fine consistency. Add the melted butter and mix well. Gradually pour in the milk and stir with a whisk until smooth. Add to the bowl with the chopped meat and stir until well coated.

Cut the rolls in half, lengthwise. Scoop out the center portion and fill each with 1/2 cup of the chicken or ham mixture. Tie the two halves of each roll together with a pretty ribbon. If using multiple fillings, different ribbon colors can be used to indicate sandwich type.
