Recipe: Ham & Cream Cheese Butter-Fried Sandwiches

Here nourishing ingredients are brought together in a simple form that appeals especially to children. This is a good breakfast sandwich.

Makes 2 sandwiches

4 slices fresh whole-wheat or white bread
3 oz. cream cheese, softened
4 thin slices ham
4 T butter

Lay the 4 slices of bread on a surface and spread each slice on one side with a rounded tablespoon of cream cheese. Place 2 ham slices on top of 2 of the slices and cover with the remaining slices of bread. Melt the butter over medium-low heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and fry gently until the bottom is golden, pressing down on each sandwich occasionally with a spatula---this will help to melt the
cheese. Turn and fry the other side. Serve warm.
