Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard

  • 8 slices best quality sandwich bread
  • 8 ounces Jarlsberg or Gruyère cheese, sliced thin
  • 6 ounces Black Forest ham
  • 3 large eggs

Preparation

  2. Preheat Cuisinart™ Electric Skillet to 300°F.
  3. Beat eggs until frothy and dip each of the sandwiches to coat evenly.
  4. Cook sandwiches until the cheese has melted and the bread is nicely browned on each side, about 10-12 minutes.
