Cheesy Ham and Egg Toast

Cheesy Ham and Egg Toast

Ingredients:

• 2 slices of your favorite bread
• 1 slice of ham
• 2 slices of preferred cheese (e.g., cheddar or Swiss)
• Mayonnaise, for spreading
• 1 egg
• Salt, to taste
• Black pepper, to taste
• Shredded mozzarella cheese, for topping
• Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Directions:

1. Prep the Bread: Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy to provide a sturdy base for the toppings.
2. Assemble the Base: Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one slice of toasted bread. Place the slice of ham on top, followed by the two slices of cheese to create a flavorful base.
3. Cook the Egg: Crack the egg into a small frying pan and cook to your preference. Season with salt and black pepper. A sunny-side-up or over-easy egg is recommended, providing a gooey yolk for richness.
4. Assemble the Toast: Once the egg is cooked, place it gently on top of the cheese layer. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the egg. The heat from the egg and toast will melt the mozzarella.
5. Broil (Optional): For extra melty cheese topping, briefly place the assembled toast under the broiler for 1-2 minutes until the mozzarella is bubbly and slightly golden.
6. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for color and freshness. The parsley adds flavor and enhances the appearance of the dish.
7. Enjoy: Your cheesy ham and egg toast is ready to be enjoyed! Serve immediately while warm and crispy.
