Ingredients
- 2 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 slices Low sodium cooked ham
- 2 slices Low sodium cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Optional: Mustard, preferably low sodium
- 1 pinch Fresh ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Place the two slices of whole grain bread on a cutting board.
Step 2
Butter one side of each slice using the unsalted butter. This side will be the outer side that touches the pan.
Step 3
Flip the slices so the unbuttered sides are facing up.
Step 4
Lay both slices of low sodium cheddar cheese evenly on one slice of the unbuttered side of the bread.
Step 5
Add the two slices of low sodium cooked ham on top of the cheese.
Step 6
If using, spread the low sodium mustard evenly over the other slice of bread and sprinkle a pinch of fresh ground black pepper.
Step 7
Close the sandwich with the buttered sides facing outward.
Step 8
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat until it's warm, but not smoking.
Step 9
Once heated, place the sandwich in the pan.
Step 10
Cook the toastie for about 3-4 minutes on one side. Press it down gently using a spatula.
Step 11
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side for another 3-4 minutes, or until the bread has browned and the cheese has melted.
Step 12
Remove from the pan and cut in half diagonally to serve.
