Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a shallow bowl or pie plate, whisk together buttermilk and egg whites. Set aside. Spread mustard on one side of each slice of bread. Top 4 slices with 1 slice of cheese. Arrange ham on top of cheese. Add to each 3-4 thin slices of pickle. Top with remaining bread slices, mustard side down. Melt 1 tablespoon reduced-fat butter in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Dip 2 sandwiches into buttermilk mixture; carefully flip and dip other side. Dont soak the sandwiches in this mixture. Just lightly dip and remove sandwiches, allowing excess buttermilk mixture to drip back into dish. Add sandwiches to pan; cover and cook 3-5 minutes. Uncover, flip sandwiches, press top down with a spatula, cover and cook for 2-3 minutes until golden and cheese is melted. Remove sandwiches, place on a baking sheet and keep warm in oven. Repeat steps 4 and 5 with remaining 2 sandwiches. Slice each sandwich in half and serve with a fork and knife.
