Assemble one slider by spreading mayonnaise on the bottom of the roll.

Recipe Notes
Tips For Making Kentucky Hot Brown Sliders;
- I used Gruyere and Parmesan cheese but any good melting cheese would do if you don't have them on hand. Why not try provolone or sharp white cheddar.
- Deli chicken can be used instead of turkey
- Try adding a little mustard with the mayo of a little kick
- You can make these in advance and keep them in the fridge for several hours before baking
