Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons apple butter
- 2 tablespoons Dijon-style mustard
- 3 whole-wheat English muffins, split and lightly toasted
- 6 1/2-ounce slices low-fat, cracked black pepper ham, chopped
- 2 tablespoons minced green onion (scallion) tops

Directions
In a small bowl, combine apple butter and mustard. Spread 1 tablespoon mixture on each muffin half.
