Steps:
- Place a 9 1/2- to 11-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat and preheat for 2 to 3 minutes. Spray the skillet for about 2 seconds with cooking spray, then cook the ham or Canadian bacon on each side until hot and lightly browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Place the bread in the skillet to toast for about 30 seconds on each side. Set aside.
- Spray the skillet again with cooking spray until very well coated, about 5 seconds. (You can also substitute melted butter for the cooking spray if you like.) Whisk the eggs in a small bowl and pour into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low and allow the egg to firm up, about 1 minute. While the top of the egg is still wet, place both slices of bread in the center next to each other. The egg will firm up around them.
- Flip the entire round of egg with the bread stuck to it. Now the 2 slices are covered by the egg and it will look like an omelet from the top. Fold the edges of the egg over the bread, leaving them still connected to the the bread slices. Top the bread slice on the left with the cheese. Top the other bread slice with the ham or Canadian bacon, folding or overlapping slightly if necessary to fit inside the bread. Once the egg is set, gently fold the right slice of bread over the other to close the sandwich. Slide the sandwich onto a plate and, voila, you have a perfect breakfast sandwich.

Steps:
- For the egg salad: Start by hard boiling your eggs. Put your eggs in cold water in a medium saucepan, place on the stove, and bring to a boil. Turn the stove off, cover the saucepan with a lid, and after 15 minutes run them under cold water. Peel the shells from the eggs (reserve 2 whole eggs for Round 2 Recipe Nicoise Salad with Lemon Garlic Vinaigrette) and chop.
- In another bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, paprika, dill, and salt and pepper. Add the chopped eggs and gently toss.
- For the ham salad: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, pickle relish, onion, salt, pepper, and parsley. Add the celery and half the ham (reserve remaining half for Online Round 2 Recipe Ham and Cheese Breakfast Burrito) and toss to coat. Set aside.
- For the sandwiches: Cut off the crusts from the wheat and white bread. On a clean surface, place 1 slice white bread down and top with half the egg salad. Top that with 1 slice wheat bread and spread half the ham salad on top. Top with 1 slice white bread. Slice crosswise into triangles. Repeat, alternating the white and wheat bread as the beginning slice, until you have made 4 sandwiches.
JUDE'S GRILLED HAM AND EGG SANDWICH
I love this sandwich that is a signature dish at Denney's, Moon Over My Hammy. Like most things, it is much more economical to make at home and even, dare I say, better! I originally grilled this in butter, but after reading Dawnab's recipe for Grilled Cheese Diner Style, I will only grill sandwiches in mayo. You can use whichever you like best. This is great for a Sunday morning breakfast with fresh fruit.
