Tomato & Ham Breakfast Melt

Some mornings you need breakfast that’s fast, satisfying, and doesn’t dirty every pan in the kitchen.

This open-faced melt stacks smoky ham and juicy tomato slices on crunchy multigrain toast, then gets a blanket of reduced-fat cheddar that bubbles under the broiler in minutes.

It’s the kind of no-fuss meal that works just as well for a quick lunch or late-night snack.

Kitchen Tips

• Use a ripe, in-season tomato for the best flavor. Slice it thin so it heats through quickly.
• Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel to keep the toast from getting soggy.
• Swap cheddar for Swiss, pepper jack, or provolone depending on your mood.
