The Full Monty Cristo (Lower Fat)
- 2 eggs
- 13 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon brandy
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 12 tablespoons prepared mustard
- 4 slices bread (sourdough is delicious)
- non-fat cooking spray
- 2 slices low-fat ham
- 2 slices lean turkey breast
- 2 slices reduced-fat swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 2 -3 tablespoons raspberry preserves
- Stir the honey and mustard together in a small bowl.
- Make two sandwiches: line up four slices of bread and spread 1/4 of the honey mustard on each slice; on two of the slices, place one piece each of ham, turkey and cheese (trim to fit on top of the bread and not hanging over), then top each meat-covered slice with one of the other slices of bread, honey-mustard side facing into the meat.
- (O.K., you know how to make a sandwich by instinct - it's easier to do than explain.
- ).
- Pour the milk in a large measuring cup and add the eggs and brandy; whisk together until the eggs are fully beaten.
- Place the sandwiches in a rectangular casserole dish; pour the egg mixture over the top of the sandwiches,then flip over the sandwiches - moving them around the dish as necessary so the liquid gets absorbed on both sides.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat, and spray with non-fat cooking spray; cook sandwiches 3-4 minutes on each side or until egg mixture is cooked through and bread is turning golden brown; remove from skillet and turn off heat.
- Cut each sandwich in half diagonally; dust with powdered sugar and serve with warm raspberry preserves.
