Twisted Ham and Cheese Melt

What are you doing? Making lunch. No you have the camera, you're making another "INSTRUCTABLE" aren't you ! Yep...guilty = )

 This ham and cheese melt is pretty simple but it does have some unusual twists

From the Refrigerator

I had about a pound chunk of ham I needed to use up so I used a box grater and grated it up to use in mac and cheese but I still had some left over so.

 1/4lb? of grated baked ham
 shredded/grated cheddar cheese
 salsa ( I used my home made ) https://www.instructables.com/id/Salsa-hack/
 Tortillas , I like the flour ones but its YOUR sandwich, use what you like

  Toaster oven or conventional oven

The Build

Lay out a tortilla and spread on some salsa, how much of course depends on your tastes.
lay down a bed of cheese or ham  and then ham or cheese
 
 Hopefully you didn't put to much stuff on the tortilla because now you have to roll it up

Cook It Up

it's called a melt because..well.. the cheese is MELTED !  You could use a paninni press, a george foreman type of sandwich grill, a frying pan or a conventional oven. I'm using a convection toaster oven I found https://www.instructables.com/id/Mining-for-suburban-gold/ set on 350f for about 10 minutes

Time to Eat

I had some potato salad left over from a recent family gathering, this one used boiled potatoes but here's an easier version https://www.instructables.com/id/EZ-frenchfry-salad-or-not-gmas-tater-salad/  of course baked beans or potato chips would work just as well as a side or no side at all. Cut the rollups or not as you see fit, I just thought it would make a better picture
