First, cut the hamburger bun or egg roll in half. Place sliced ham, lettuce and cheese in the center of each roll. You should leave a long portion of ham exposed, so that it appears as a tongue. Then, put olive slices at the position of the eyes. If you wish, you can also add mayonnaise, butter or mustard to the sandwich. A funny, ham-face sandwich is ready!
