Instructions

1 On a plate, spread mayo and mustard on one side of each slice of bread. Place 2
slices of deli ham and 1 slice of cheese onto two of the slices of bread.
Assemble with the remaining two slices of bread to create the sandwich. Press
sandwiches down with a skillet so they are more flat. This will help them stay
together when doing the egg mixture.
2 Fry butter in a large skillet over medium heat to melt it. While the butter is
frying, in a small bowl that fits the bread, whisk together eggs and a dash of
salt and pepper.
3 When butter is melted and skillet hot, dip both sides of one of the sandwiches
into the egg mixture. Transfer from egg mixture to skillet. I would recommend
doing this quickly so the bread does not get too soggy. Repeat with the
remaining sandwich.
4 Cook sandwiches until golden brown on each side. I like mine on the lighter side
so it was about 3-4 minutes.
5 Cut and serve your Monte Cristos with raspberry jam on the side. Sprinkle
powdered sugar on top as well if you would like.
