I COLLECT cookbooks and enjoy reading them much like a novel. But when I start cooking, I create my own recipes to suit my taste. I used to cater parties and found I often had to be resourceful. This sandwich is one of my creations, so easy to cook for two and even one! -Norma Curtis, Ithaca, Michigan Ingredients:
4 slices bread |
2 slices fully cooked ham |
2 slices cheddar cheese |
2 eggs |
1-1/4 cups milk |
1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes |
fresh asparagus tips, cooked |
shredded cheddar cheese, optional |
Directions:
1. Place two slices of bread in a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish or two individual baking dishes. Top each with a slice of ham and cheese; top with remaining bread.
2. In a small bowl, beat the eggs, milk, mustard and parsley. Pour over sandwiches. Let stand for 5 minutes; carefully turn sandwiches over and let stand 5 minutes longer.
3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes. Top with asparagus and cheese if desired. Bake 5 minutes more or until cheese is melted and a knife inserted into the egg mixture comes out clean. Serve immediately. Yield: 2 servings.
