Perfect Eclipse Sandwich

In a few short days most of us will be finding the perfect viewing spot to watch the 2017 eclipse of the sun. If you are wanting something to tide you over while enjoying the show, we've come up with the perfect sandwich for you! Moon Over Myhammy! This moon shaped delight has been served at restaurants across the US for decades. It's easy to cook and will travel well if you're driving to the ideal viewing spot.

Can we suggest a Sunshine Wheat Beer by New Belgium to go with your Moon over Myhammy? Seems like a match made in heaven.

Moon over MyHammy

  • softened butter
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 2 oz deli sliced ham
  • 1 bagel, sliced
  • 2 slices swiss cheese
  • 2 slices american cheese
  1. Put two medium size skillets over medium heat. In one skillet, add butter and scramble the two eggs. Salt & pepper the eggs to taste. In other skillet, brown the sliced deli ham, without separating the slices.

    Once the ham is brown, place the Swiss cheese on top of the ham and allow them to melt slightly.

    Toast the bagel slices and place the ham and Swiss cheese onto the bottom piece of toasted bagel.  Scoop the scrambled eggs out of the other pan with a large spatula and place on the ham.  Place the american cheese slices on top of the eggs and top the sandwich with the the other slice of bagel. 

    Pretty easy and darn tasty!  Happy eclipse day!
