Instructions

1

Prepare the Egg

Spray a small microwave-safe bowl or ramekin with cooking spray. Crack the egg into the bowl, pierce the yolk with a fork to prevent it from exploding, and season with salt and pepper.

2

Microwave the Egg

Cover the bowl with a microwave-safe plate or wrap and microwave on high for 45 seconds. Check if the egg is set and microwave in 15-second intervals if needed.

3

Add Ham and Cheese

Place the ham slice on top of the cooked egg and top with the cheese slice. Microwave for an additional 15 seconds until the cheese is melted.
