Ingredients You'll Need
3 Rhodes Texas™ rolls, thawed but still cold
1 egg, beaten
mayonnaise, if desired
lettuce leaves
sliced deli meat
sliced cheese
Directions
Cut 1/4 off of one roll and roll it into a 10-inch rope.
Cut the rope into 4 segments for the laces. Set aside.
Press remaining 2 3/4 rolls into a football shape leaving the top mounded.
Pull the ends to exaggerate the points.
Place on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
With a knife, make a slight cut across the top of the football not quite reaching the points.
Lay each lace across the cut.
Using a toothpick or knife, push the ends of the laces down into the football securing them tightly.
Brush with egg and let rise for 30 minutes.
Bake at 350°F 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool and then slice.
Spread with mayonnaise, if desired and stuff with lettuce, deli meat and cheese.
