How to Make a Delicious Ham, Cheese, and Tomato Sandwich: A Simple and Tasty Classic

Perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, making a Ham, Cheese, and Tomato Sandwich is simple yet delicious!

Ingredients you will need:

• 2 slices of your favourite bread (white, whole grain, or sourdough all work great)
• 2-3 slices of ham
• 1-2 slices of cheese
• 2-3 slices of ripe tomato
• Butter (for toasting, optional
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• A handful of fresh lettuce or spinach (optional, for extra crunch)
• Mustard, mayonnaise or aioli (optional, for extra flavour)

Step-by-step Guide:

1. Preparation of the ingredients: Slice your bread if it hasn’t been already, take your ham, cheese and tomato out of the fridge and cut as necessary and if you are using lettuce or spinach, rinse them well & pat dry. If you are after a crispy texture, you can lightly toast the bread as well. 
2. Assembling the sandwich:
• Place the bread on a flat surface 

• Add a slice of cheese, then lay on the ham slices & the tomato slices. Ensure that you cover the entire piece of bread to avoid any “naked” spots. 

• If you’re using lettuce or spinach, place it on top of the tomatoes for an added crunch.

• Season with salt & pepper. 

• You can also add any mayonnaise, aioli, mustard or any extra sauces you wish. 

• Place the second slice on top and press down to hold it all together

3. Cut & serve: Take a sharp knife and cut down the middle or however you prefer! Now enjoy your sandwich!
