Grilled Sandwiches

Combining grilled cheese and a basic sandwich

bread
butter
cheese
lunchmeat
condiments and vegetables

Heat griddle or flat pan over medium. Butter one side of each slice of bread (use 2 slices per sandwich). When pan is hot, place bread (butter side down) on pan and place cheese on half the bread. When cheese begins to melt, heat meat on griddle and add to sandwich on top of cheese. When bread is toasted as desired, move sandwiches to plates, leaving open faced. Add condiments and vegetables on empty side of bread. Close sandwiches, cut, and serve.

This recipe is totally customizable. I like ham and cheddar on wheat bread with mustard, lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. Aaron likes his without the vegetables (maybe a few pickles on the side). Zeke likes his cold so he can disassemble it to eat it. :)

English Muffin Sandwiches

4 slices ham
4 slices cheddar cheese
4 English muffins
3 eggs

Beat eggs. Melt butter in a small frying pan over medium-high heat. While pan heats, split and toast English muffins. Add eggs to hot pan and cook until mostly set, then flip over with a spatula. When cooked, put on a plate to cool slightly before cutting into quarters. Grill ham in the same pan until warmed through. Layer one slice of ham, one piece of egg, and one slice of cheese on each muffin. Place tops on muffins and microwave for 30 seconds to melt cheese.
