Grilled Cheese, Black Ham & Tomato Sandwich

Friday I needed something quick and easy for lunch. Since I was home, I decided to do something a bit more special than a simple sandwich. Grilled cheese is good, but grilled cheese with Black ham and a few slices of tomatoes is even better!


Grilled Cheese, Black Ham & Tomato SandwichIngredients
2 slices wholegrain bread
2 slices Swiss cheese
2 slices Black Ham
4 thin slices of tomatoes
sunflower oil
Grilled Cheese, Black Ham & Tomato Sandwich
Directions
1. Heat a bit of sunflower oil in a non-stick pan.
2. Assemble your sandwich: bread/cheese/tomatoes/ham/cheese/bread.
3. Cook on each side for about 2-3 minutes. Make sure to add a bit more oil to the pan right before flipping the sandwich.
4. Serve immediately with spinach/olive oil/sherry vinegar/red pepper flakes salad.

What's your favorite grilled cheese sandwich?

PS. I am feeling better and am back at work today (Monday). Thank you so much everyone for asking!!!!

Ah I could so go for a grilled cheese. Its such comfort food for me, reminds me of my childhood :D. I tend to make mine with really thin slices of tomato and basil, the basil makes all the difference.

If it was as tasty as it is comely, this was a real treat indeed.

My favorite is actually plain old white bread and American cheese with lots of butter. Sometimes I also like rye bread.

If I'm going for fancy, I'll do gruyere and slices of pear!

I've also done ham and tomato and love it! Great pictures!

I never can say "no" to a grilled sandwich! Olga, yours look truly amazing!

I didn't know you are Russian :) Such a pleasant surprise. My very best friend's name is Olya, too.

oh, I LOVE grilled cheese! It's such a common comfort food, but you made it look quite artistic, and now I really crave one!
I love one with dried figs, goat cheese, prosciutto, and tomato, pressed in a ciabatta!

This is actually a very popular sandwich in Brazil. we call it Misto Quente. Maybe you're a Brazilian at heart :)

That looks delicious Olga. Feeling better or still a bit sick? I wanted to try some grilled panini but my stomach is a little upset this morning (possibly from overdosing on red wine last night..:)) so maybe tomorrow... This does look really good and easy though!

Agreed! I love grill my sandwiches. It's so much tastier when it's grilled. And most important, it's not soggy.
