Grilled Ham and Cheese with Rosemary-Dijon Spread

Ingredients

• 2 tsp low fat cream cheese
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp rosemary, fresh, minced
• 1/4 cup(s) Swiss cheese, or Gruyere cheese
• 1/4 cup(s) part-skim mozzarella cheese
• 3 oz extra lean 4% fat deli-sliced ham
• 4 slice(s) reduced-calorie whole wheat bread
• 2 spray(s) cooking spray

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, mustard and rosemary. In another bowl, combine both types of cheese.
2. Place bread on a flat surface and evenly divide cream cheese mixture across all four bread slices. Top each of two bread slices with 2 tablespoons Gruyere mixture and 1 1/2 ounces ham; sprinkle each with another 2 tablespoons Gruyere mixture. Cover sandwiches with remaining bread slices, spread-side down.
3. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set over medium heat. When hot, cook sandwiches until cheese is melted, pressing down a few times, about 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Notes

Yields 1 sandwich per serving.
