  • 4 soft sandwich rolls
  • 8 oz guava paste, sliced

  2. 2Arrange the guava paste evenly across the bottom half of each roll.
  3. 3Layer queso blanco over the guava paste.
  4. 4Close the rolls and press gently so the filling stays in place.

💡 Use firm guava paste rather than jam; it should slice cleanly without soaking the bread.
