Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices whole grain bread
- 50 grams low-fat cheddar cheese
- 2 slices low-fat ham
- 1 teaspoon unsalted light butter
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your sandwich maker or grill pan over medium heat.
Spread the unsalted light butter evenly on one side of each slice of whole grain bread.
On the unbuttered side of one bread slice, spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard.
Place half of the low-fat cheddar cheese on the bread slice with mustard, ensuring even coverage.
Add the two slices of low-fat ham on top of the cheese.
Add the remaining cheddar cheese on top of the ham slices.
Finish by placing the second slice of bread on top with the buttered side facing out.
Lightly spray the sandwich maker or grill pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Place the sandwich in the preheated sandwich maker or grill pan. Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted. If using a grill pan, press down gently with a spatula and flip once halfway through cooking.
Remove the tosti from the heat, sprinkle with black pepper for added flavor, and allow it to cool slightly before cutting it in half or quarters.
Serve warm with a side salad or as a tasty snack.
