Easy Poppyseed Ham Sandwiches

Thanks to a girlfriend at the office, I'm kind of obsessed with these. Perfect for everything from a baby shower to a Super Bowl party, these little ham sandwiches look (and taste!) like you put forth all this effort... except you don't have to. Now that's my kind of food for entertaining.

With a combination of mustard, butter and Worcestershire sauce, your guests won't be able to tell what makes them so good. And then they'll ask for the recipe. Which, in my mind, is the highest compliment. : )
