Ingredients
- 2 slices low sodium whole grain bread

- 1 large egg
- 2 slices low sodium deli ham
- 1 slice low sodium Swiss cheese
- 0.25 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Step 2
Crack the egg into the skillet, sprinkle with black pepper, and cook until the whites are set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the egg carefully and cook an additional minute until the yolk is slightly firm, or longer if a firmer yolk is desired.
Step 3
Remove the egg from the skillet and set aside.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the low sodium deli ham slices and cook for 1 minute on each side until they are warmed through.
Step 5
Remove the ham from the skillet and set aside.
Step 6
Butter one side of each bread slice with unsalted butter.
Step 7
Layer one slice of bread, butter side down, with the cooked ham, Swiss cheese, spinach leaves, cooked egg, and top with the second slice of bread, butter side up.
Step 8
Return the sandwich to the skillet and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Step 9
Remove from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve warm.
