Keto Ham and Cheese Campfire Sandwich
Ingredients:
- 8 slices of ham (preferably thinly sliced)
- Eight slices of cheddar or Swiss cheese.
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 head of lettuce (for serving)
- Sliced tomatoes (optional, for serving)
- Pickles (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4 sandwiches
Step 1: Prepare the Ham Slices
- Lay the gammon slices on a clean surface. To eliminate any excess moisture, pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2: Make the Sauce
- In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This will be your flavorful sauce.
Step 3: Assemble the Sandwiches
- Take one slice of ham and spread a thin layer of the sauce on it. Place a slice of cheese on top. Repeat with another slice of ham and cheese to create a sandwich. Secure with toothpicks if needed. Repeat until you have four sandwiches.
Step 4: Cook on the Campfire
- Heat a grill or campfire grate over medium heat. If you’re using an open flame, make sure it’s well-established coals or medium flames.
Step 5: Grill the Sandwiches
- Place the sandwiches on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until the ham is heated through, and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Adjust the cooking time based on the heat of your campfire or grill.
Step 6: Serve
- Carefully remove the sandwiches from the grill. Remove the toothpicks. Serve each sandwich on a bed of lettuce with optional sliced tomatoes and pickles.
