Italian Style Monte Cristo Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Spread bread with mayonnaise and mustard. Alternate ham, Swiss and turkey slices on bread.
• Beat egg and milk in a small bowl. Coat the sandwich with the egg and milk mixture. Heat a greased skillet over medium heat, brown the sandwich on both sides. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the jam, mustard and rosemary. Lay out the slices of bread. Divide the mustard mixture evenly over the 8 slices of bread and spread almost to the edges. Put a slice of cheese on each piece of bread, followed by 2 slices of prosciutto. Put together 2 of the bread slices for each sandwich.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs. Add the heavy cream and salt and whisk to combine.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the oil to the pan and heat for 1 minute. Working with one sandwich at a time, dip both sides of the sandwich in the batter and place directly into the hot pan. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Cover with a lid and allow to cook until the first side is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the lid, flip each sandwich and continue to cook on the remaining side until golden brown and the cheese is melted, approximately another 4 minutes. (Or cook in batches if needed.)
• Sprinkle one side of each sandwich with powdered sugar and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, and salt and set aside.
• Lay the 8 slices of bread out on a flat surface. Lay 1 slice of cheese on each slice of bread. Then on 4 slices of the bread lay 1 slice of ham. On the other 4 slices lay 1 slice of turkey. Top all 8 slices with 1 slice of Swiss. Make 4 sandwiches and coat with egg mixture.
• *Cook's Note: You may add more Swiss, turkey or ham, if desired
• In a large skillet over medium-heat melt the butter.
• Add the sandwiches to the pan and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
• Remove the sandwiches to a sheet pan and place in the oven. Bake until the cheese has melted and the sandwiches are warm throughout, about 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, whisk all of the ingredients together until smooth.
• Cut the sandwiches into quarters and serve with the cranberry syrup.

Steps:

• On 4 of the slices of bread, place 1 cheese slice and 2 tomato slices.
• Top with remaining bread slices.
• On a sheet of wax paper/parchment paper combine together cornmeal, Parmesan cheese, and basil.
• In a shallow bowl, combine the eggs and the milk, mix well.
• In a large nonstick griddle or skillet melt 1 Tbs of butter over medium - medium high heat.
• Dip sandwiches in egg mixture, then coat with the cornmeal mixture. Do this 2 sandwiches at a time.
• Place 2 sandwiches on the griddle/skillet and cook for 3 min on each side or until golden.
• Repeat with last 2 sandwiches.
• Cut sandwiches in half; serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
