Ingredients
Instructions
For this recipe you can use smoked ham, turkey or chicken. In the case of cheese, it can be mozzarella or white cheese.
In a bowl, beat the egg and milk and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. If you do not have one, pour a little oil in a pan.
Meanwhile, dip the bread slices in the egg mixture so that they are well soaked in the mixture.
Toast the slices over medium heat for a few minutes on each side or until browned.
Remove from heat and place on one slice of bread, one slice of cheese, two slices of ham and one slice of cheese. Top with the remaining slice of bread.
If you wish, you can add arugula, spinach, basil, etc. or replace the cheese with a high protein and/or low fat cheese.
