Monte Cristo Sandwich
I have a young Kuwaiti friend who told me she used to LOVE Monte Cristo sandwiches until she learned they had ham in them, and then she couldn’t eat them anymore. I wonder if they would taste OK made with turkey ham? This is today’s recipe from allrecipes.com; my sweet daughter-in-law got me started and now they send me recipes with pictures every day!

I’m more of a Croque Monsieur person myself ….
they had this as the weekend special in the Early Bird last week and I missed it 😦 I love Monte Cristo too
KTDP did you try the croque madame? it is the same as the monsieur only they add poached egg on top
LLOOL, KTDP, that’s fine if you are in France, but in the US, Monte Cristo is about as close as you get.
Ansam – YOU can make it yourself! You are a talented and creative cook!
