Well, that's where our Rancher-Style Cheese Buns come in! Made with leftover hot dog or hamburger buns, this recipe makes a perfect side dish, and no buns about it!
What You'll Need
- 4 ounce cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1/2 (1-ounce) packet ranch dressing mix
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 hot dog or hamburger buns, split
What to Do
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, dressing mix, and cheese; mix well then set aside.
- Separate rolls in half and place both halves, cut-side-up, on a baking sheet. Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over rolls.
- Right before ready to serve, bake 10 to 15 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the edges of the rolls get crispy delicious.
