Ham and Cheese Toastie

Sometimes, we think healthy eating is complicated or that we need to make these elaborate recipes for our meal plans. I want to make those ideas toast… by sharing simple, delicious toast recipes with you this month. Let’s get to it with this Ham + Cheese toast… but let’s elevate it with some amazing cheese and the most nutritious choices when it comes to ingredients!

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 slice low-sodium sprouted wheat bread, toasted

  • 3 slices of ham, nitrite-free + minimally processed

  • ¼ cup Gruyere cheese 

  • Chopped fresh chives (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat broiler on high.

  2. Heat a nonstick skillet, lightly coated with spray, over medium-low heat. 

  3. Break the egg into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes (or until white is firm and yolk begins to set). Turn with a spatula and cook for 1 more minute (or until the egg reaches your doneness preference).

  4. Top toast with ham, fried egg, and cheese. Place the toast under the broiler for 3-5 minutes - make sure to monitor it!

  5. Garnish with chives and enjoy!
