I have you covered if you are wondering what to do with all that extra Easter ham. Try this spin on a Monte Cristo! It’s a triple decker mound of gooeyiness!
Ingredients:
2 slices of ham
3 slices of Swiss Cheese
3 slices of white bread, crusts cut off
1 Tbsp of mayo
2 eggs
1/4 cup of whole milk
1 Tbsp of butter
Strawberry jam
Powdered sugar
Directions:
Spread may on the slices of bread. Layer the sandwich in this order: bread, cheese, ham, bread, cheese, ham, cheese bread.
In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Carefully dip the sandwich into the egg mixture, covering all sides.
In a hot skillet with melted butter, place sandwich in the center and allow to cook 4-5 minutes. Then flip to cook on the other side. Carefully place an upside down stainless steel bowl over the sandwich while it finishes cooking another 4-5 minutes.
Remove bowl. Cut sandwich, top with a sprinkling of powder sugar and serve with a side of strawberry jam for dipping.
