Ham and Cheese Croissant

Sometimes time is of the essence when it comes to working lunches so this little gem could be the answer to your prayers.  We touched on it briefly on our Super Sandwiches post but we felt that this simple favourite deserved it’s own post!

Delicious served hot or cold and has endless possibilities depending on the type of cheese or ham your prefer.  So make it your own.

Here’s our suggestion:

Ingredients:

• 1 plain croissant, split in half horizontally
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 2 thin slices deli ham
• 2 thin slices Monterey Jack cheese
• Several slices of thinly sliced pear (about 1/2 small pear)
• Pinch of watercress, washed and dried, thick stems removed

Method

Spread cut sides of croissant with mustard. Layer ham, cheese, pear, and watercress on bottom half. Top with remaining half croissant.
Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Garnish with sweet, crispy red grapes
