I got this recipe off a real california cheese recipe card and it is so good and filling. nice toasted bread with melted cheese and ham, yum. you'll love it.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 3  large eggs
• 1 1⁄2 tablespoons dijon-style mustard
• 1 1⁄4 teaspoons  finely-chopped fresh tarragon leaves
• 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
• 8  slices  egg bread (1/4-inch-thick)
• 2  tablespoons butter
• 8  ounces  teleme cheese, cut into 16 slices (or use Monterey Jack)
• 8  slices  black forest ham (1-ounce each)

Directions

1. In a medium bowl, lightly beat together the eggs, mustard, tarragon, and pepper.
2. Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, making sure that both sides are thoroughly coated.
3. Put dipped slices on a plate and set aside.
4. In two large sauté pans, melt one tablespoon butter in each over medium-high heat.
5. Add four bread slices to each pan.
6. Cook until the undersides are dark golden brown, about four minutes.
7. Turn slices and place four slices of cheese and one slice of ham on each of the four slices of bread.
8. (You may need to fold the ham slices in half to fit the bread.) Cover with the other four bread slices, placing the cooked side down over the cheese and ham.
9. (You will now be using only one pan.) Cover the pan and cook for two to three minutes or until the bottom sides of the bread are browned.
10. Using a spatula, turn the sandwiches, press to flatten slightly, and cook 2 to 3 minutes more, or until bread is toasted and cheese is melted.
11. Cut in half and serve immediately.
12. If desired, serve a little extra Dijon-style mustard on the side.
