I made Monte Cristo sandwiches last night. I’d never had one though I remember them being very popular at Bennigan’s. I couldn’t imagine eating one before last night. There just seemed to be something wrong with a fried sandwich served with powdered sugar and preserves. But what was I thinking? These are amazing! Maybe it’s because I’m growing a baby right now, but these really hit the spot!
I deviated from the “traditional” recipe using cheddar and mozzarella (the only cheeses I had) and cooked them butter instead of oil, more like french toast instead of deep frying them and I wasn’t disappointed.
