- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 1 medium, sliced Tomato
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the vegetables. Rinse the lettuce leaves under cool water and gently pat them dry with a clean paper towel.
Step 2
Slice the tomato into thin, even slices, and set them aside.
Step 3
Place the whole grain bread slices on a clean working surface. Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread.
Step 4
Take two of the slices of bread and spread a teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the unbuttered side of each.
Step 5
Layer 3 slices of vegetarian 'ham' on each of the mustard-spread bread slices.
Step 6
Add 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the 'ham' slices.
Step 7
Place two pieces of lettuce and a few slices of tomato on top of the cheese. Season the tomato slices lightly with salt and black pepper.
Step 8
Close each sandwich using the remaining slices of bread, making sure the buttered side is facing outwards on both sides of each sandwich.
Step 9
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwiches on the skillet.
Step 10
Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Step 11
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them sit for a minute before cutting them in half diagonally.
Step 12
Serve immediately and enjoy your Vegetarian Classic 'Ham' and Swiss Sandwich.
