Monte Cristo Waffle-Wiches
Transform a classic French breakfast sandwich with a waffle iron. Great for lunch or supper with a light salad.
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 8 slices white or brioche bread
- 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese
- 1/4 pound deli-sliced ham
- 1/4 pound deli-sliced turkey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Preparation
Pre-heat a waffle iron to medium heat.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper.
Brush the waffle maker with the melted butter. Build the sandwiches: one slice of bread, some cheese, a slice of ham, a slice of turkey, more cheese and another piece of bread. Turn the sandwiches in the batter and place in the waffle iron. Close the waffle iron and cook for 5 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve with an arugula salad alongside.
