Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Dairy-free cheese slices
- 2 tablespoons Dairy-free margarine or spread
- 4 slices Sliced deli ham
- 4 slices Whole wheat bread
- 2 leaves Leafy lettuce
- 1 small Tomato
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the ingredients. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves and set aside. Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
Lay out the four slices of whole wheat bread on a clean surface. Spread a tablespoon of dairy-free margarine on one side of each bread slice.
On the unbuttered side of two bread slices, place a slice of dairy-free cheese followed by two slices of deli ham.
Add a leaf of lettuce and a few slices of tomato on top of the ham. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Top each layered sandwich with the remaining bread slices, buttered side facing outward.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the sandwiches in the skillet.
Cook each sandwich for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the dairy-free cheese begins to melt.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for a minute before slicing in half.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious dairy-free cheese and ham sandwich!
