Step 1
Start with a slice of bread and sprinkle some mozzarella cheese on top. Place another slice of bread over it, then use a round cutter to cut out a circle from both slices. Set that cut-out piece aside.

Step 2
Take a third slice of bread and spread cheddar cheese over it. Place this slice under the two stacked slices you just prepared.

Step 3
In the hole you created with the cutter, gently add some chicken ham, being careful not to break the bread. Sprinkle a little shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the ham.
