Amy's Cheggy Bread

• total time: 16 minutes

Ingredients

My friends son named my baked eggy cheese and ham bread 'cheggy bread' when he was little...and it just kind of stuck

This is the perfect lunch *or in my case dinner* to have between Christmas and new year. It's a brilliant way to use up any scraps of cheeses and the last bits of Christmas ham

You can use a mixture of cheeses in this - stilton, mozarella, smoked would all be lovely and if you don't have any ham, just use some cooked bacon

I've written up the recipe for this below - Let me know if you're going to give this a try! A x

4 slices of crusty white bread

Butter

150g grated cheddar cheese

1/2 tsp dijon mustard

2 eggs beaten

Ham

Ground black pepper

Directions

Heat the oven to 180C (fan)

Butter one side of the bread and lay it butter side down on a baking tray.

Mix the grated cheese, beaten egg, mustard and black pepper together.

Place some ham on top of the bread *my ham was thick so I tore it into small pieces, but if it's thin you can do a whole slice

Divide the mixture evenly between the slices of bread, spreading it right up to the edges.

Bake for around 15-18 minutes, until the cheesy topping is golden brown and puffed up and the bread is crisp
