Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix mayonnaise and horseradish. Slice sheet of dinner rolls in half horizontally; place bottom half in ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish. Spread cut side of roll top with horseradish mayonnaise. Mound roast beef on each roll bottom. Spoon caramelized onions over beef; top with Swiss cheese. Place top half of rolls over cheese.

In small bowl, stir melted butter and parsley until well mixed. Brush over top of rolls. Bake 19 to 22 minutes or until rolls are golden brown and cheese is melted. Cut into individual sliders, and serve.
