For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin spread of fig jam or cranberry sauce to the sandwich before grilling. Use day-old bread for best results. It will soak up the egg mixture without becoming soggy. If you don't have Swiss cheese, Gruyere or Emmental cheese make excellent substitutes. For a vegetarian option, replace the ham and turkey with roasted vegetables such as zucchini, bell peppers, and eggplant.
