A healthy way to start your day....with a real egg, sliced honey cooked real ham, with real colby cheese...on a wonderful grilled English Muffin.
Nothing artificial here!!

How to Make HAM & CHEESE GRILLED ENGLISH MUFFIN w/an EGG CROWN

Step-by-Step

1Put a tiny bit of butter in a small skillet.
Butter the 2 bottom sides of the english muffin.
Put one in a warm skillet buttered side down.
Top with ham and cheese.
Put the top of english muffin on, butter side up.
2Grill the sandwich on medium heat.
In a couple minutes turn and grill other side.
When done remove & keep warm.
This is when I sometimes add a thin slice of a sweet onion...don't laugh, it gives the sandwich a delicious crunch.
Please try it you might like it...
It's like grilling a cheese sandwich.
3In a small skillet add a pinch of butter , then carefully break the egg into a small bowl, then slowely put it into the warm skillet..Salt& Pepper.
Put a glass lid on the skillet.
When the white is cooked and the yellow yolk is runny.., put the egg on top of your grilled sandwich.
Enjoy with a glass of orange juice...now you are ready to tackle your day!
