How to Make Cuban Toasties

Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup chopped cooked ham, 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon finely chopped white onion, 1 tablespoon chili sauce, and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard. Mix well.
Arrange 4 slices of Cuban bread on the prepared baking sheet.
Place 2-3 dill pickle slices on each bread slice.
Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of the ham mixture evenly onto each bread slice, topped with pickles.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
