Ingredients
- 5 eggs
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) milk (1%)
- ⅛ tsp (0.5 mL) pepper
- 8 slices Italian or multigrain bread
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 slices lean Black Forest ham
Instructions
- Step 1
Whisk eggs, milk, and pepper in small bowl.

Spray non-stick skillet with cooking spray. Heat skillet medium heat.
- Step 3
Pour in egg mixture. As eggs begin to set, gently move spatula across bottom and side of skillet to form large soft curds. Cook until eggs are thickened and no visible liquid egg remains.
- Step 4
Divide scrambled eggs evenly between four slices of bread. Top with one slice of cheese, one slice of ham, and a second slice of bread.
