- 6 eggs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/3 cup whole milk
- 4 4 tablespoons cheddar cheese or 4 tablespoons emmenthaler cheese

- Spread the mustard on the bread slices and make sandwiches with the fine slices of cheese and ham; place each slice of cheese against the mustardy bread, and the ham between them.
- Make the sandwich and cut each one in half, making two triangles.
- Squish the sandwiches into a baking dish, approx 10 1/2 inches x 8 1/4 inches and 2 1/4 inches deep.
- Beat the eggs, salt, and milk together; then pour over the sandwiches tightly packed into the dish.
