Place a slice of low sodium Swiss cheese over the vegetables on each bread slice.

Step 8

Lay one and a half slices of low sodium cooked ham on top of the cheese for each sandwich.

Step 9

Sprinkle a pinch of fresh ground black pepper over the top of the assembled layers for added flavor.

Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, with the buttered side facing down, to complete the sandwich.
