Grilled Ham, Cheddar & Egg Breakfast Sandwich with Fresh Strawberries


This is a protein packed simple breakfast sandwich that my daughter really enjoys.

Ingredients:

1 wheat sandwich round
2 medium or small eggs
1 slice medium cheddar cheese
5 very thin slices of honey ham (deli thin)
4 fresh strawberries
A little unsalted butter
Salt & Pepper (for eggs)

Directions:
  1. Use a griddle or large non-stick frying pan.
  2. Heat the griddle
  3. Rub a little bit of butter over entire surface just to coat.
  4. Add the bread and thin slices of ham to the griddle to start heating.
  5. Place cheese slice on one of the sandwich rounds.
  6. Begin to cook eggs, do not break the yolks, add salt and pepper to eggs and cook until middle is almost hard, flipping once or twice.
  7. Add ham slices to the other half of the bread (by this time both sandwich rounds should be a little crispy.
  8. When eggs are finished cooking, add the eggs to the sandwich.
  9. Dice the strawberries in quarters and serve!
