Grilled Ham, Cheese, Pickle, and Potato Chip Sandwich
Who am I to tell you how to make a dang sandwich?
I don’t know how much mayonnaise you like to spread on your bread. I don’t know how spicy you like your mustard. I don’t know how cheesy you like your situation. I can’t know how tall you like to stack your ham.
I don’t want to get into your sandwich making business. It’s a personal thing. I know.
But! May I just offer you two humble suggestions?
Pickles and Potato Chips. Inside.
You knew this was bound to happen.
Typical animal. Always after the good stuff with his smelling nose.
Grilled ham and cheese is easy . I don’t have to convince you that it’s a simple and delicious sandwich. Adding pickles and potato chips is a salty, crunchy stroke of genius. Enjoy warm, just after grilling, with a hearty handful of potato chips.
Grilled Ham Cheese Pickle and Potato Chip Sandwich
You’ll need:
2 slices of sandwich bread
Dijon mustard
cheddar cheese sliced thin
about 5 thinly sliced pieces of ham
sliced dill pickles
a handful of salted potato chips
1 tablespoon of butter for grilling
What you’ll do:
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Spread mustard over both sides of bread. Top with cheese, ham, pickles, potato chips, and more cheese.
Smash sandwich breads together. Grill in melted butter on both sides until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Slice in half. Serve immediately before the chips get soggy.

I’m all about potato chips on sandwiches. I especially love them on pb&j, which a lot of people find gross. It’s really delicious though since you get the sweet and salty combo going. Yummm.
I bet your cat is thinking: Yeah, yeah, add some tuna!
Man, I used to love putting potato chips in sandwiches and this just takes it to a whole new level. This is why I love you Joy.
I used to just put French’s mustard on brown bread and fold it over and eat it. I can also eat just cheese and pickles with mustard on them. Combining them all is even better. In England they have cheese and pickle as a thing, but their pickle is not like our pickles, it is like a brown chutney. The first time I ordered a cheese and pickle sandwich I was like: what.
Jess
makes a good breakfast! or brunch…at least for me :)
I am so doing this! How wikkid!
Can I just say that this is exactly what I miss living here in Italy! My Italian fiance is not so keen to make things like this, and in fact, I always have to substitute the cheese and bread because cheddar is a bit too orange for Italians and bread, well, don’t get me started—- buuuuuttt, we do have potato chips here as well as great ham and mustard, so, mission accomplished. This will have to be my lunch.
have a nice day from Greece. The best sandwich for brekfast! thank you
A cheeky little combination… but no protests from me!
I grew up with grilled cheese + potato chip sandwiches! And even better, the whole thing was dipped in ketchup :)
Love your creation!
After a night out of cocktails (eek! It’s a Sunday!) I can’t tell you how good this sandwich sounds to me!
This just made my mouth water. I can’t think of anything else now. Right before bed, teeth already brushed. Thanks, Joy.
PS. Mmm, pickles.
Lol awesome Joy! Over here in Northern England a “crisp butty” is typical if somewhat cringeworthy fare! I wonder how many Americans secretly do it too? It sure is delicious. And as for pickles – how could you not have them?!?
Wow this looks amazing! I am now eyeing the contents of my fridge to see if I could make this and have it for lunch today. Yum.
I used to have crisp (chip) and ketchup sandwiches when I was younger- this is a slightly upgraded version!
We could be brothas from anotha motha. My sandwiches are always loaded with pickles–pref spicy bread and butter–and a tuna sand isn’t a sandwich without crunchy chips.
