Yes, Antonia, PLEASE post your recipe!  I'd love to make Cuban Sandwiches with home made rolls.

Sweet!  That'll give me time to catch a quick flight down ;)  You MUST post photos and the recipe.  My stomach is gurgling.

Thanks, everyone! I suspect that my younger son, who doesn't care much for Swiss but likes Manchego, will put some of that on his.  HLA, it's actually dinner tonight. This morning, I made some outstanding Cuban rolls (well, the way I remember them . . . it's been so many years since I've had an Ybor City "Cuban"), and a tasty braise- roasted pork shoulder with a "Cuban adobo" rub and sauce over the weekend. I'll take photos, and post the recipe when I have time later this week. ;o)

I 3rd the motion for swiss! But I bet Manchego would be great as well.
