  3. Mix in the minced thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well, remove from heat, and set aside.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Remove the rolls from the package while keeping them intact. Slice them across to separate the tops from the bottoms.
  6. Place the bottoms, cut side up, in an 11x7 baking dish.
