For a richer flavor, try using provolone or mozzarella cheese in addition to, or in place of, the American cheese. A sprinkle of red pepper flakes in the egg mixture adds a touch of heat. Serve with a side of marinara sauce for dipping. Ensure your pan is adequately heated before adding the sandwiches to prevent sticking. For extra crispy edges, consider using a panini press.
