These sammies are gooood! They are easy, and even better, you can pretty much do what you want with them.
Building your sandwich: {My rendition}
Spread some low fat cream cheese on one of the slices of bread. Place some kind of sandwich meat on top. {We went with ham} Top the meat with Swiss cheese, then sliced tomatoes. Put the sandwich together.
Here is where the Monte Cristo part comes in.
In a bowl, scramble eggs {I do one egg per sandwich} with a titch of milk and about a 1/4 t. dried basil. Then, whip out your french toast skills and dip both sides of the sandwich in the egg. Place on a warm frying pan and cook, browning both sides. To get the nice browning and melting of the cheese, cover while cooking.
This is a new favorite in our house. It's a great simple sandwich, everyone loves it, AND you can mix and match ingredients to build your own Monte Cristo to your own likings if you so choose. I highly recommend trying these.

Do you use french toast bread? I think its called texas toast, instead of regular bread or can you use whatever kind of bread?
Any kind of bread works just great
