Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Sliced bread
- 2 slices Deli ham
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Mustard
- 1 leaf Lettuce
- 2 slices Tomato
Instructions
Start by gathering all the ingredients to assemble the sandwich easily.
Spread the butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread. This will help create a crispy, golden-brown texture when grilled.
Flip the buttered sides of the bread slices down and spread mustard on the unbuttered sides.
Place the lettuce leaf on one of the slices of bread, on the mustard side.
Layer the tomato slices over the lettuce.
Place the deli ham slices over the tomatoes, followed by the cheddar cheese slices.
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the sandwich to the skillet.
Grill the sandwich for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing it in half.
Serve the cheese and ham sandwich immediately to enjoy its melty goodness.
