Servings

Makes 12 mini sandwiches (about 4 servings)

Estimated WW Points

Points will vary depending on your plan and exact brands used.

• Approximately 4–6 Points per serving (3 sandwiches)

Using reduced-fat cheese and light butter keeps Points lower.

Ingredients

• 24 reduced-fat Ritz-style crackers (to make 12 sandwiches)

• 6 slices 98–99% fat-free deli ham or turkey

• 6 slices reduced-fat Swiss or cheddar cheese

• 1 tablespoon light butter, melted

• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

• ½ teaspoon poppy seeds (optional)

• ½ teaspoon dried minced onion (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Assemble Sandwiches

Lay 12 crackers flat on the baking sheet.
Cut deli meat and cheese slices into quarters so they fit the crackers.
Layer meat and cheese onto each cracker, then top with remaining crackers to form sandwiches.

3. Make Light Topping

In a small bowl, mix:

• Melted light butter

• Dijon mustard

• Worcestershire sauce

• Poppy seeds and dried onion (if using)

4. Brush and Bake

Lightly brush the tops of each sandwich with the butter mixture.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and sandwiches are warmed through.

5. Serve

Serve warm. These are best fresh but can be reheated briefly in the oven or air fryer.

Tips to Lower Points Further

• Use fat-free cheese slices

• Use extra-lean turkey instead of ham

• Skip the butter topping and lightly mist with cooking spray instead

• Serve open-faced (1 cracker per sandwich)

Storage

• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days.

• Reheat at 300°F for 5–7 minutes to crisp crackers again.
