Sprinkle evenly with pepper. Spread 3/4 teaspoon mayonnaise mixture over each remaining bread slice; place, mustard side down, on top of sandwiches.
2.         Combine egg substitute and fat-free milk in a shallow dish. Dip both sides of each sandwich into the egg mixture.
3.         Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add sandwiches to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned and cheese melts. TIP :
Instead of your usual grilled ham and cheese, try this French-style sandwich that's enhanced by the zip of whole-grain mustard. One online reviwer claims, "Dijon Croque Monsieur is one of our favorite sandwiches to have for dinner served along side a salad."
