- 8 slices whole wheat sandwich bread
- Lettuce, if preferred
- Tomatoes, if preferred
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Spray waffle iron with cooking spray and heat.
2. Combine salad dressing, mustard and honey in a small bowl.
3. Spread dressing on one side of each slice of bread.
4. Divide meat and cheese and place on dressing side of bread to make 4 sandwiches.
5. Place 1 sandwich in the middle of heated waffle iron.
6. Bake for 2 to 3 minutes or until sandwich is golden brown and cheese is melted.

FROM FARM TO TABLE:
- Honey fact: A single honeybee will visit 50-100 flowers in a single trip out of the hive.
- Dairy fact: Farmers sell 100 pounds of milk for only about $18.32.
- Pork fact: Bacon comes from pigs and is one of the oldest processed meats in history.
OTHER HINTS:
Read the bread label to make sure it says "100% whole wheat bread" for extra fiber and wholesome ingredients. Other words like "wheat" or "cracked wheat" do not mean the same as 100% whole wheat bread.
