Instructions
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add butter to the skillet and let it melt. Pour in the egg mixture.
- Gently scramble the eggs, stirring occasionally, until cooked to your desired consistency.
- While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread slices until they achieve a golden-brown color.
- Assemble the sandwich by placing a slice of cheese on one slice of toasted bread, followed by the cooked salami slices.
- Layer the scrambled eggs on top, followed by another slice of cheese.
- Cap the sandwich with the second slice of toasted bread.
- For an extra touch, place the assembled sandwich in a panini press or on a heated grill pan for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and the exterior is crispy.
- Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately while hot.
Tips
- For a healthier version, use whole grain bread and opt for turkey salami.
- Serve with a side of fresh fruits or a cup of strong coffee for a complete breakfast.
