Equipment

Ingredients

  • 8 slices whole grain bread
  • 1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese softened
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter softened
  • 1½ teaspoons dill weed
  • 1½ tablespoons dill pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon dehydrated minded onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 8 slices thickly sliced ham

Instructions

  • Use a wooden spoon to mix together the softened cream cheese, dehydrated onion, dill weed, garlic powder, and dill pickle relish in a medium-sized bowl until smooth and creamy.
  • Spread one side of each slice of bread with softened butter.
    Lay the slices of buttered bread, butter-side-down-onto a sheet of parchment paper.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly onto each plain side of the bread.
  • Add the ham onto 4 of the cream cheese slices, and top with the remaining 4 slices of cream cheese and buttered bread, making sure they're buttered-side-up.
  • Heat the skillet or griddle to medium high.
  • Add the sandwiches to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side (watching carefully so they don't burn). *Note - you may need to adjust the heat level of the skillet or griddle accordingly.
  • Remove from the heat, slice in half, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
