Test Kitchen Tips
  • Unless otherwise specified, Taste of Home recipes are tested with lightly salted butter. Unsalted, or sweet, butter is sometimes used to achieve a buttery flavor, such as in shortbread cookies or buttercream frosting. In these recipes, added salt would detract from the buttery taste desired.
  • Sharp cheddar cheese has been aged longer than regular cheddar. As cheese ages, its flavor becomes more pronounced. Using aged cheese in a recipe can add complexity and rich flavor, even to humble favorites like mac ’n’ cheese.

    Ingredients

    • 3 large eggs
    • 2 large egg whites
    • 6 tablespoons fat-free milk
    • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
    • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

    • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
    • 8 teaspoons butter

    Directions

    1. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, egg whites, milk and onion. Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Add egg mixture; cook and stir until completely set.
    2. Combine mustard and syrup; spread over 4 bread slices. Layer with scrambled eggs, prosciutto and cheese; top with remaining bread. Butter outsides of sandwiches.
