Monte Cristo Style Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Ingredients:
2 slices of Sara Lee® Artesano™ Bread
1 tsp mayonnaise
1 tsp grainy mustard
2-3 oz smoked deli ham, sliced, room temperature
2 slices Swiss cheese, room temperature
1 large egg
1 tbsp half and half
1/2 tbsp butter
Powdered sugar, for sprinkling (if desired)
Directions:
Spread mayonnaise on one side of one slice of bread. Spread mustard on one side of the other slice of bread. Lay both slices, spread sides up.
Top each slice of bread with a slice of Swiss cheese.
Place the ham on one of the slices of bread. Assemble the sandwich.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and half and half until well combined.
Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt and bubble.
Dip the sandwich quickly in the egg mixture, ensuring the entire sandwich is coated.
Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook until golden brown on one side, then flip and cook the other side.
Serve warm with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and strawberry preserves, if desired.
