Instructions:
- If you haven’t already, slice or shred the cheddar cheese.
- Slice the ham if it isn’t already in slices.
- Place the egg in a small saucepan and cover it with cold water.
- Bring the water to a boil over medium heat.

- While the egg is boiling, toast the two slices of white bread until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Place the toasted bread slices on a cutting board.
- Layer one slice of toast with the ham slices.
- Sprinkle or layer the cheddar cheese over the ham.
- Place the second slice of toast on top to form a sandwich.
- Cut the sandwich into strips, about 1-2 inches wide, to create the "dunkers."
- Arrange the egg dunkers on a plate.
- Cut the boiled egg in half or quarters and serve alongside the dunkers.
Tips:
- Tip 1: For a softer boiled egg, simmer for about 6-8 minutes.
- Tip 2: Try using different types of bread like whole grain or sourdough for added flavor and texture.
- Tip 3: To add more variety, consider adding some fresh vegetables like sliced tomatoes or avocado.
- Tip 4: Use a sharp cheddar cheese for a more pronounced flavor.
