Ham Swiss Honey Mustard Grilled (Printable Version)
Layers of ham and Swiss meet honey mustard in a golden, melty sandwich with sweet and savory flair.
# What You’ll Need:
→ Bread
01 - 4 slices hearty white or sourdough bread
→ Dairy & Cheese
02 - 4 slices Swiss cheese
03 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
→ Meats
04 - 4 slices smoked ham
→ Condiments
05 - 2 tablespoons honey mustard (store-bought or homemade: 1 tablespoon honey and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard)
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Spread a thin layer of unsalted butter on one side of each bread slice.
02 - Arrange 2 bread slices, buttered side facing down, on a clean work surface.
03 - Spread 1 tablespoon honey mustard onto the unbuttered side of each bottom bread slice.
04 - Place 2 slices smoked ham and 2 slices Swiss cheese onto each prepared bread slice.
05 - Top with remaining bread slices, buttered side up.

# Additional Tips::
01 -
- Easy to make with just a handful of ingredients
- Satisfying blend of sweet and salty flavor
- Ready in under twenty minutes for quick lunches or weeknight dinners
02 -
- High in protein from ham and cheese
- Melts beautifully for kids and adults alike
- Flexible for ingredient swaps or add-ins
03 -
- Let your butter sit at room temperature so it spreads easily across the bread that way you get a perfectly even golden crust
- Press gently with a spatula while cooking for extra melty cheese but do not flatten the sandwich which can squeeze out the fillings
- Be patient and use medium heat so the bread crisps at the same rate that cheese melts inside
