Cheesy French Toast With Ham Grilled Vine Tomatoes Recipes

CHEESY FRENCH TOAST WITH HAM & GRILLED VINE TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cheese and chives. Melt the butter in a large non-stick pan over a medium heat. Dip slices of bread into the egg mixture, then place them in the pan. Cook for 3-5 mins on each side, or until golden and crisp, then keep warm in a low oven if you need to.
• Place the vine tomatoes on a baking tray, drizzle with a little oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until they start to soften and blister. On a large platter, pile up the cheesy French bread, grilled tomatoes, sliced ham and a pile of watercress, and let everyone dig in.

CHEESY TOMATO TOAST

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Place the bread on a baking sheet and broil until lightly golden on both sides.
• Whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil with the garlic and basil in a small bowl; brush evenly on the toasted bread. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper; arrange a layer of tomatoes on each bread slice. Chop any remaining tomato slices and set aside for the salad. Top the bread evenly with the gruyere, mozzarella and parmesan. Return to the broiler and cook until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes.
• Whisk the vinegar and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add the greens and the reserved chopped tomatoes and toss. Serve the cheese toast with the salad and chips.
