ingredients

3 tablespoons whole grain mustard
8 (1 ounce) whole wheat bread, slices
8 ounces thinly sliced smoked deli ham
4 (1 ounce) reduced-fat swiss cheese slices
¹⁄₃ cup egg substitute
¹⁄₃ cup nonfat milk
vegetable oil cooking spray
2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional)
4 tablespoons tomato chutney

directions

1. Spread mustard evenly over 1 side of each bread slice. Layer each of 4 bread slices, mustard sides up, with 2 oz. ham and 1 cheese slice. Top with remaining bread slices, mustard sides down.
2. Whisk together egg substitute and milk in a shallow dish. Dip both sides of each sandwich into egg mixture.
3. Cook, in batches, in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat 3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Top each with 1 tablespoons chutney, and, if desired, dust with powdered sugar.
*I substitute tomato chutney for cranberry sauce on the side.
