For the Garlic Butter Topping:

Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
- Prepare the Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping them connected. Place the bottom half in the baking dish.
- Spread the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Italian dressing. Spread evenly over the bottom half of the rolls.
- Layer the Fillings:
- Place a layer of salami, followed by pepperoni, ham, and provolone cheese.
- Add roasted red peppers and banana peppers for extra flavor.
- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
- Top and Butter: Place the top half of the rolls over the filling. In another small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Brush generously over the rolls.
- Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 5-7 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Serve: Let cool for a minute, then slice and serve warm!
Notes
- Spicy Kick: Add crushed red pepper flakes or hot giardiniera for more heat.
- Cheese Options: Swap provolone for mozzarella or Swiss for a different twist.
- Make Ahead: Assemble sliders ahead of time, cover with foil, and refrigerate until ready to bake.
