I love grilled ham and cheese, so I wanted to use those flavors in a breakfast-type dish. I came up with this frittata and it turned out great. Call me crazy, but I even added a little dollop of sour cream to my slice. I tried this out on my husband and he loved it. This recipe is simple, quick and very filling.

Notes from the Test Kitchen:
This quick and easy frittata is great for brunch but is hearty enough for a tasty dinner. Packed with the garlic, onion, and mustard you taste those flavors in every bite. What I really loved was the butter toasted bread addition - so yummy. While the recipe calls for deli ham, I think this would be great with leftover baked ham too.

How to Make Ham & Cheese Sandwich Frittata
- 1Preheat oven to 350 degrees. On the stove, preheat a cast iron skillet to medium heat.

- 3In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and spices. Set aside.
- 4Melt 3 Tbsp of butter in the skillet and add the cubed bread. Gently toss with spoon until bread begins to brown and becomes crispy; about 5 minutes.
- 5Add last Tbsp of butter and chopped ham to skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until ham starts to sizzle.
- 6Pour egg mixture over bread and ham in skillet. Remove skillet from stove and place in oven.
- 7Bake in 350 degree oven for 12-13 minutes until eggs are firm in the center.
- 8Remove skillet from oven and sprinkle shredded cheese over the top. Return to oven and bake for another 3-4 minutes until cheese begins to bubble.
- 9Let cool for about 5 minutes. Cut into 8 slices and serve with a dollop of sour cream on top, if desired.
