Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out all ingredients to the specified amounts.
- If using pre-sliced ham, ensure the slices are ready to use. If not, slice the ham into thin pieces.
- Toast the slices of whole-wheat bread in a toaster until golden brown. If you prefer, you can also toast them in the frying pan for a couple of minutes on each side over medium heat.
- Crack the eggs into a small bowl (optional step) to avoid shells in your pan.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. If needed, you can add a small amount of cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Once the pan is hot, gently pour the eggs into the pan.
- Fry the eggs until the whites are fully set and the yolks have reached your desired level of doneness. Turn off the heat.
- You can heat the ham slices in the frying pan for about 1-2 minutes on each side if you prefer warm ham. This step is optional.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise salad dressing evenly on one side of each toasted bread slice using a butter knife or back of a spoon.
- Place the ham slices evenly on the mayonnaise side of one slice of bread.
- Carefully place the fried eggs on top of the ham.
- Top with the other slice of bread, mayonnaise side down.
- Cut the sandwich in half if desired.
- Serve immediately while hot.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients for the best taste and texture.
- If you prefer a runny yolk, be careful not to overcook the eggs.
- Toast the bread slices for added crunch and flavor.
- Feel free to add extra toppings such as cheese, lettuce, or tomato for more variety.
- Use a non-stick skillet to make frying the eggs easier and reduce the need for additional oil or butter.
