How to Make Open Faced Ham Sandwiches
- Preheat your broiler to high.
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of softened cream cheese and 2 tablespoons of softened butter.
- Beat with an electric mixer or stir vigorously until completely smooth and creamy.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1 clove minced garlic.
- Spread approximately 2/3 of the cheese mixture evenly onto four English muffin halves.
- Top each muffin half with 2-3 slices of cooked ham and a thick slice of tomato.
- Spoon the remaining cheese mixture over the center of each tomato slice.
- Place the open-faced sandwiches on a baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning!
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
