Ingredients

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 6 slices ham
• 4 slices bread
• 1 tablespoon mustard
• 2 dashes ground black pepper

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Spread 2 slices of bread with the mustard. Layer each with 3 slices of ham, half of the pear slices, a dash of pepper, and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese. Top with remaining bread. Lightly spread margarine on the outer sides of each sandwich.

Step 2

Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grill the sandwiches until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Cut each sandwich in half to serve.
