Monte Cristo – sort of

I have started watching the Sandwich King on the Cooking Channel.  I love to make sandwiches, especially grilled ones and he brings some classics to the table.  I don’t eat pork, so I made mine with corned beef instead of ham.

Recipe
Monte Cristo:

  1. For the french toast, I used whole wheat challah I had made.  I dropped the bread in a mixture with 1 egg and 1/4 cup of fat free 1/2 & 1/2.
  2. I heated my electric grill to 350 degrees and put the bread on for maybe 3 minutes per side (don’t make the bread to wet with the mixture and cook until nice and brown)
  3. With my french toast complete, I spread 1 tsp or so of sweet & spicy mustard, then added 1 piece of shaved turkey and 1 piece of corned beef.  The sandwich was finished with 2 slices of monterey jack cheese 
  4. To finish the sandwich, return it to the grill but turned down to 200 degrees and cover the sandwiches with a pot top so the cheese gets a nice melt on it
  5. Plate it but you are not done until you pour a little syrup over top of the sandwich.

    I watched The Sandwich King win Next Food Network Star and I thought he totally deserved it! Great concept and personality, and so consistent throughout the entire competition. Great sandwich Peter!
