Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the salt and black pepper, then whisk until fully combined.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Add the diced ham, bell pepper, and onion to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the ham is slightly browned.
Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Cook, gently stirring with a spatula, until the eggs are fully set and lightly scrambled. Remove the skillet from heat.
Toast the two slices of bread to your preferred level of crispness using a toaster or toaster oven.
Place the scrambled egg mixture evenly on one slice of the toasted bread. Top with the second slice to form a sandwich.
Slice the sandwich in half diagonally, if desired, and serve warm.
