Ham, Egg, and Swiss Croissant-wiches ~ Tasty breakfast sandwich on everyone’s favorite croissant with smoked swiss, an egg and a thick slice of ham.
My spur-of-the-moment breakfast a week or two ago left me wanting more. It also left me wanting ham. But ham is a personal favorite. I loved the sandwich, which is why I shared it, but I knew I could make it even better. My grandma is visiting and she commented on it. I suggested making it again, but this time with ham, one of my true loves in life. She readily agreed to test any food placed before her.
Ham made this terrific sandwich delectable. The addition of a croissant with its buttery, flakey texture was also a good move as well. Grandma was very happy.
We had this for breakfast, but was so tasty, I’d eat it for lunch or dinner!
