Monte Cristo Sandwich

A delicious hybrid of french toast with grilled ham and cheese. It’s great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!

I recently posted about french toast and how much Cole loves the stuff. He’s also a big fan of ham and cheese sandwiches, so it was only natural that I make him a combination of the two. I remember as a kid my favourite thing to order at a restaurant was a Monte Cristo sandwich. I was excited to try making them for lunch one day. As I had hoped, Cole went crazy for them!
I don’t really have a recipe for this. Basically you just make a ham and cheese sandwich. Here’s the ham I use; Natural Selections by Maple Leaf:

I love that it’s natural, without the preservatives and chemicals that are often in regular deli meat. So then I dip it in beaten eggs, and grill it. I like to use my double-sided indoor grill to make it almost like a panini. So there you go; it’s a ham and cheese french toast panini. Whatever you want to call it, it’s yummy!

    Ooh good question! I had even taken a photo of the ham for this post and then totally forgot about it. Thank you for reminding me, I’ve added it to the original post. It’s Natural Selections by Maple Leaf.
